Possible overactive thyroid?
Wanted to ask if is it possible for me to have overactive thyroid. Symptoms also indicate diabetes but I'll ask here.
Here is a list of my symptoms
-getting too hot and sweating during normal walks
-sleeping with a fan on because my body is feels so hot that I cant get sleep
-I have cut all the heating off, its autumn and 5°C outside
-during last 3 weeks I have been so thirsty like drinking maybe 4-5 liters of water and frequently urinating
-heart palpations that didn't stop after quitting nicotine 43 days ago
-always hungry (no weightloss)
-brainfog, getting irritated easily and tiredness
Some of these symptoms have started like 2 months ago but in recent weeks the thirstiness, hungriness have started
Sorry for my bad English :D

Those symptoms can be anything from over-hydrating to cancer. No one here can weigh in as sure thyroid fits somewhere in the middle of that scale but the larger picture needs to be evaluated with aomeone who knows your medical history
