I would say, absolutely yes, Jake. I think weak adrenals may cause some of that. Thyroid and Adrenal glands are very related.

Definitely!

Can you give us a little more info please? Are you on any medication? Do you have any recent blood test results? These may help people to answer your question more fully as there are many reasons you may be experiencing hyper symptoms when hypothyroid from low iron, low vitamin D to cortisol or blood sugar issues.

If you haven't already, I would recommend testing serum iron, ferritin, folate, vitamin b12,vitamin D and cortisol. It would also be helpful to obtain your recent thyroid results or her another thyroid test done if it is more than 6 months since the last one.

Sorry I couldn't be more specific but I hope that has given you a few things to look into. I hope the symptoms ease soon.

Ask your GP to add some T3 to your T4. With no thyroid gland, the very least they can give you is T3/T4 combination

I hope you feel better soon.
