Constantly throbbing in the throat at night

Since I stopped T 3 throbbing was better. Endo has requested another blood test due this month. Last night, throbbing was so bad that it kept me awake.

My question is in Hashimoto thyroid, why is it happening? Is this life threatening? What should I do? I am worried!

When you feel the throbbing, take your pulse on your wrist (there are videos to see how). If the throbs are at the same time, it is the blood going through your neck you can feel. It is not unusual to be able to feel (or hear) the blood going through you.

You may want to have a blood pressure test next time you see the GP, or some chemists offer this service. Hope this helps.
