Thyroid
When your thyroid makes too much or too little hormones, it is called hyperthyroidism or hypothyroidism, respectively. Thyroid disease affects any age group, and can be present at birth or develops as you age. If you are a diabetic, you are at a higher risk of developing thyroid disease.
Symptoms
Hyperthyroidism – Anxiety, nervousness, increased sweating, muscle weakness,
weight loss.
Hypothyroidism – Fatigue, cold sensitivity, forgetfulness, dry skin, hair loss,
weight gain, muscle pain
