Answers:
It is possible that you have a hyper thyroid yes!. I suggest asking your doctor for a blood test to put your mind at ease!. I went to my doctor 5 years ago with all those symptoms and more!. I was diagnosed with Graves Disease and stayed on PTU tablets for 3 years!. 12 months ago I had radioactive idodine to kill off my thyroid which didnt work!. 3 weeks ago I had a total Thyroidectomy!. Best thing I ever did in my life :)!. I now feel normal (despite the side effects which I am experiencing)!. If I were you I would go to the doctor soon for blood tests as if it is a thyroid problem you really need to do something about it before you end up like I did!. It caused alot of panic attacks for me also, and I had never had before I was hyper!. As for the needle phobia, Take a couple of panadol before you go, and take a book to read while they are taking blood!. It helps to take you mind off it all!. Let me know how you go :) Chin upWww@Answer-Health@Com

Hmm, they are all symptoms of a thyroid problem, but they contradict each other; an UNDERactive thyroid would explain the depression, hair falling out and fatigue, but the palpitations and tremors would indicate an OVERactive thyroid!. I think you should see you doctor and explore some other avenues, although a blood test to check your thyroid might be a good idea!.Www@Answer-Health@Com

If you have had agoraphobia for 3 years, I would say that your symptoms just sound like anxiety and panic attacks!. Stress from these things can cause all those things to happen to your body!. Are you on medicine to help you out!? If you aren't, I recommend talking to your doctor about it!.Www@Answer-Health@Com

The thyroid runs in our family and noone suffered from the symptoms you have listed, they just kept on sleeping more and more!!!!!!!!!!!!!Www@Answer-Health@Com
