Hypothyroidism Treatment

I wake up in the morning really hot but not sweating, and I’ve been getting random bruises that show up out of no where. I’m only 19 and I’ve also been getting a few spider veins on my legs. I also get random anxiety attacks. I was more hypo, but my doctor increased my medication and made it so that I was hyper because my thyroid still wasn’t functioning correctly when it was normal. Are all these symptoms? I’m not sure how long I’ll be able to stick this out.

may have hyperthyroidism if you:

Feel nervous, moody, weak, or tired.
Have hand tremors, or have a fast or irregular heartbeat, or have trouble breathing even when you are resting.
Sweat a lot, and have warm, red skin that may be itchy.
Have frequent and sometimes loose bowel movements.
Have fine, soft hair that is falling out.
Lose weight even though you are eating normally or more than usual.
In addition, some women have irregular menstrual cycles or stop having periods altogether, and some men may develop enlarged breasts.

The symptoms of hyperthyroidism are not the same for everyone. Your symptoms will depend on how much hormone your thyroid gland is making, how long you have had the condition, and your age. If you are older, it’s easy to mistakenly dismiss your symptoms as normal signs of aging.
