Hi there,

For the last month or so Ive been getting a weird buzzing sensation on the left side of my chest it comes and goes. Feels like a bee in there or a phone vibration. It isnt a strong feeling its very light if you know what I mean.

Its really beginning to worry me. I suffer sometimes with anxiety and this is making my symptoms come back again. I am taking thyroid medicine 50 mcg from last 3 years, above problem can happen in thyroid.

I don't really understand the chest buzzing but to be sure your thyroid condition is well treated do you have your latest results? And are you taking medications, supplements or have another diagnosis that is relevant?

Hi there, I get that occasionally so know exactly what you mean. I've not been overly worried about it. I currently take NDT. Mine is sometimes on opposite side from my heart so I put it down to a nerve or something as can get these on my arm too.

If you are worried about this you should see your doctor to put your mind at ease as worrying won't help your anxiety.

It is strange that you mention this as I too have a "funny" sensation at that location which I cannot identify. Hoping it would disappear not no luck. The last time I had a persistent ache on right side, but further round, it turned out to be kidney cancer 5 years ago and I now have an annual scan. Already past due date so shall be going to see GP, whether he can hurry them up a bit.

Advise you get yours checked out too. I may despise docs re the way they treat hypothyroidism, but I love surgeons. They have saved my life 3 times already.
