Hi, No.. you won't die! I used to have an overactive thyroid too. You can't have the surgery until your thyroid is controlled with the meds. It might take some time, mine took about 1 -2 years. You might need more medication? Also try to eat lots of foods that will suppress the thyroid like broccoli.

Hello, Murmurs reflecting normal heart function can be heard in young people, in thin individuals and in pregnant women. Patients with anemia or an overactive thyroid may have a murmur due to the dynamic circulation. So get your hemoglobin levels, thyroid function tests and an ECHO heart done to confirm the diagnosis. It is very difficult to precisely confirm a diagnosis without examination and investigations and the answer is based on the medical information provided.

I had an overactive thyroid for six months and I thought I was Bipolar. The symptoms made me feel awful. At times I wanted to kill my husband and other times I just cried because I didn't have the energy to do anything. It is an awful feeling but with the right doctor and the right medication your overactive thryoid can be controlled. It takes a couple of weeks for medication to actually start making you feel better. Hang in there.

Here are some the common symptoms of a Hyperthyroid condition (I am no expert just a fellow person with a Hyperthyroid condition) You may only have a temporary overactive thyroid condition and actually not have thyroid disease hard to tell with out more data.

In the space of about 1 month I lost half a stone for no apparent reason, so I turned to the internet to look for reasons why this might be. Overactive thyroid is one of the things I came across so I looked into it more and some of the symptoms ring a bell; Mood swings, Sweating, Tiredness, weight loss regardless of increased appetite, sleeping poorly, shaky hands (sometimes) and that my heart occasionally feels like it skips a beat.

I am feeling absolutely fine and have never been diagnosed with thyroid problems in the past. In fact, I am pretty overweight just due to not dieting or exercising like I should have been. They prescribed me the lowest dosage of Synthroid available. I cannot for the life of me understand why they would give this to me having a slightly overactive thyroid because I am under the impression that it is for people with underactive thyroids.

I feel anxious and unwell, not sure which comes first if I have an overactive thyroid, is it causing AF or could the AF and amiodrone have caused the thyroid? I have another appointment with the GP but feel confused. Any feedback appreciated.

First have the other things ruled out with a urine check and physical exam, then get treated. OAB is a very common disorder even in young women and stress can make the symptoms worse. Good Luck.

25mg to take twice a day so I will see how I go with these but so far they help for a few hours and then off I go on a wobble again -Also I have had so much muscle wastage in my legs I feel like they will not hold me and I am afraid to go anywhere on my own in case I fall and I am going from home into the car, car into work and home again, so all in all it is not much fun having an overactive thyroid and I am starting to think I have an overactive mind also!!!

Doing labs for free T3 and free T4 may be helpful to see if your thyroid is overactive.

This SLOWS down metabolism. So in Thyroid terms that would be low thyroid or more commonly known as hypothyroidism or Hypo for short. Hypo most common symptoms are; chronic fatigue, cold hands & feet, low body temperature, inability to take cold temperatures, always bundled up when others seem fine, loss of hair, brittle hair, dry skin, brain "fog", low libido, weight gain/inability to lose weight regardless of amount of exercise. Depression & sometimes anxiety.

Two months ago my blood tests revealed I had hashimoto. My TSH was 4.769, my T4 free was 1.07, and my FSH serum was 114.5. I have been taking 1 grain (65 mg) of Nature-Throid NT-1. I just had another blood test and now my TSH is 0.006, which indicates that I am cured of hashimoto's and now have an overactive thyroid???

I just got a call from my regular doctor this morning saying that my blood test work which got done last week showed an overactive thyroid. Again. This was just a routine check up so I'm seeing my endo doc on Thursday. Last time I got my tests done were in April when they showed an slight overactive thyroid. I was prescribed beta blockers. Before that, almost a year ago, I went through a phase of an overactive thyroid that lasted about a 3 months. After this period, my values were normal.

The thing is at one off the ladies I go care for her daughter has told me and the other career that she is off work because she has got a overactive thyroid and because off this she is carrying too much static in her vudu and her doctor has told her not to go near babies or pregnant ladies. She doesn't no I'm pregnant and although I didn't touch her she was best me is this a problem.

This happened to my daughter, all her tests came back ok but then we discovered a year later that her thyroid was borderline for being overactive and she was left for a year, in the meantime all her symptoms which match yours got steadily worse, she lost weight and was admitted in with a fast heartrate and there it was discovered she had and overactive thyroid which cos was left untreated had turned to hyper, she has had treatment and is on the mend.

Hi, Thyroid disease. Both an overactive and underactive thyroid can cause hair loss. The hair loss associated with thyroid disease can be reversed with proper treatment. It would be advisable to consult a skin specialist for your symptoms and a proper clinical examination. Let us know if you need any other information and post us on how you are doing. Regards.
