The tanning is very concerning. This is a classic hallmark of adrenal insufficiency - the extreme form of which is Addisons. And many of the other things also strike a chord in that direction.
It is not uncommon for thyroid disease to be associated with adrenal issues but yours sounds to be much more serious than many such reports.
