Needing a diagnosis

I'm a 25 year-old +male with symptoms of insomnia irritability with frequent alternating symptoms of “hot and cold” sweating and freezing. I have a hot temper but it's usually related to feeling lousy. I've had this for 3 or 4 years possibly longer!

Is this more likely a thyroid problem or over-production of testosterone, or something else?

Thanks for the input. I've got a 2nd dr's appointment pending. I've learned about something that is new to me. The first appointment was with a physician's assistant (not a doctor but qualified to write prescriptions for limited drugs).

As sort of a mental checklist of things to consider and/or rule out she mentioned the vagus nerve. I looked for vagus/vagal nerve conditions and found "vasovagal syncope". At least some of the symptoms fit but I have never fainted. Some dizziness but never passed out.

Guess I talk to the doctor about that. Time will tell. Funny thing, I haven't felt any symptoms for several days (well, maybe mildly once?).

Thanks for responding,
