Just wanted to comment about the contrast. I also years back was very hyper with Graves disease and had to have a CT scan for ovarian cyst. I had such a terrible reaction to the dye and it really scared me, the technicans and the doctor. I was told to always tell the hospital or doctors that I am allergic to IVP dyes , especially iodine contrast. I am now hypo due to TT in 2006 but I avoid iodine like the plague. Sometimes even seafood will bother me if I eat too much so I have to be careful.

Yes the thyroid labs can change due to body or emotional stress.
do anti-anxiety meds help? i don't mean anti depressant, but like ativan or xanax? this may help you decide if it is anxiety or something else.
sometimes benadryl actually helps me. over the counter stuff called calms forte relaxes me. herbal tea especially for tension. hot showers or baths. happy tv shows. a phone call with someone to talk about anything happy and simple. breathing exercises. there is an app for the driod or iphone that has breathing exercises. laying down quietly.
Hi,
Wanted to welcome you to our community. I don't have any direct experience but wanted to say hi and that you're in a great place here on our community! I run my wrists under cold, cold water that helps sometimes if there's nothing underlying causing it .. just a thought to ask your dr if that would be helpful.
