Hi
Thanks for posting on HCM
The symptoms you described are most likely caused by your underlying thyroid disorder.I will suggest you see an endocrinologist to evaluation.
As for your hip and knee pains, it could still be due to muscle wearing from your condition or an associated osteoarthritis.I will suggest you try the following:
-Rest well
-Have your thyroid condition under control
-Pain medications like ibuprofen and a myorelaxant like miorel may help relief the pains
-Get enough vitamin D and calcium
-Eat healthy and balanced and ask your Doctor about supplementing your Diet
Hope my answer ill help you
Best wishes
