Yes, go see your GP and have new blood tests done. Always get a print-out of your blood test results complete with ranges for your own records. If you have a query you can post them here for someone to comment.

As you already have had experience of being over-active, do you think you should reduce your medication slightly? I would phone the surgery and ask advice.

You sure you are over active? Not just tired and wired through struggling adrenals. running on adrenalin?

If you have hashimotos, you can alternate between hypo and hyper for quite a while.....

not sure, feel wired but the itching is what makes me think its hyper, its not so bad today but am exhausted because of the overdrive of energy, its crazy

I agree with galathea, if you have Hashimotos you can jump from one to the other quite frequently.
