Constantly feeling like you've had too much coffee...

[lindsay0891]

Wondering if anyone with hyperthyroid feels this way? I FINALLY figured out a way to describe my symptoms. It's like when you drink too much coffee and instead of feeling energized you feel worn out, lightheaded, anxious, and your heart is racing. And you need to eat something to absorb the caffeine and calm the jitters but you're nauseous so nothing sounds good. That's how I feel all the time. Does anyone else get the same feeling?
I haven't been diagnosed but I am borderline hyperthyroid and having all kinds of crazy symptoms.

I'm trying to get to an endocrinologist because regular doctors and even internists don't see the need to treat any of my symptoms, they just think it falls under chronic fatigue/post-viral syndrome since I had a virus in April that pretty much started all this. They won't even do any more tests, just told me there was really nothing they could do.

Yep. I'm "subclinical hyperthyroid." My TSH is 0.34 which is low but close to normal, but one thing that sticks out in my mind is that it has fallen every time I've had it tested. Free T4 is still normal at 1.4 (0.8-1.8 is the range), total T4 was borderline high when it was checked in July, and I haven't had any T3 labs.

Sounds like Hyper symptoms to me, have you had any labs done recently?
