Hi friend,
Welcome to Health Care Magic

Possibly the thyroid replacement has been excessive...the dose must be adjusted on TSH measurement...
Decadron is a powerful steroid and its role in migraine is not beyond question...
Fever and anxiety also contribute...

You need to be examined again; EKG / HOLTER (24 to 48 hour ambulatory monitoring) / ECHOcardiogram / TMT (Treadmill exercise ECG) /MRI Brain / LABORATORY work-up – may all be necessary for further assessment and assistance.

The treating doctor may suggest them depending on need, based on his assessment of the situation.

Take care
Wishing speedy recovery
God bless
Good luck
