What Causes Symptoms Like Nausea, Food Craving And Shaky?

I keep having spells of extreme irritability, waves of nausea, feeling very hot or very cold, feeling spaced out, food cravings, weakness, feeling shaky, trouble concentrating and speaking (can t concentrate to speak normally). The last episode has been over the past 3 days. I have a history of a thyroid goiter, that has been increasing again recently, normal thyroid labs. I am usually physically active and i am otherwise healthy. My labs always come out normal...I m very frustrated with the whole situation.

hi there, the symptoms you are describing are very similar to that experienced by a person who has attacks of hypoglycemia and hypotension. I would suggest that you get a fasting blood sugar also done and get your blood pressure checked periodically morning and evening for 3 continuous days and look for any abnormality.If possible get thyroglobulin antibody levels checked. When you get the above symptoms try and drink a glass of juice or nibble on some biscuits. If you could tell me whether you are peri-menopausal that is between 45 to 55 yrs of age ,would also be helpful and this could be a part of perimenopausal syndrome.Take care
