Thanks for your question on Healthcare Magic.
I can understand your concern.
By your history and description, we should first rule out hyperthyroidism.
So get done serum TSH, Free T3 and free T4 for the evaluation of hyperthyroidism.
If all these are normal then no need to worry for hyperthyroidism.
Sometimes uncontrolled stress, anxiety and panic disorder can also cause similar symptoms.
So consult psychiatrist and get done counselling sessions.
Try to identify stressor in your life and start working on it's solution.
You may need anxiolytic drugs too.
Don't worry, you will be alright. Avoid stress and tension, be relax and calm.
Hope I have solved your query. I will be happy to help you further. Wish you good health. Thanks.
