hyperthyroid?

i am experiencing the following, anxiety, severe diarrhea, dyslexia, erratic behavior, hair lose, extreme insomnia, low resistance to infection, menstrual changes, forgetful, fog, skin changes, throat problems, tremors, weakness, weight loss (despite increasing my calories by 1000 a day).  I have taken a blood test but doc says it's not my thyroid.  But I know it is, every female in my family has had their thyroid removed (mom, 5 aunts, 2 cousin, grandpa).  I am not insured and can not afford to keep going to the doctor and leaving with no answers.  I just discovered a small growth on my neck.  IS THIS A THYROID PROBLEM?
