would talk with your primary doctor - this is not likely thyroid. some type of imaging (like MRI or CT) will possibly be needed.
Hi
I have had Hashimotos since 1984 and am on oroxine. Over this time I have had several episodes of hyperthyroid and one of my symptoms is a tightening in my head as though I have a torniquet around my neck. Each time I have had this I have tested overactive and have had to reduce my dosage.
Hope this helps
Laura
I have Graves Disease as well as a large goiter. I had the experience of tightening in my head upon the onset of my hyperthyroidism, but I didn't know how to describe it. Now, when I raise my arms above my head I have the same sensation.
