Brief Answer:
might be due to hypertension.

Detailed Answer:
Hi
Welcome to HCM.
I have gone through your query.

Does this symptoms occur all the time.
Thorough general physical examination is must to say what it is exactly.
These symptoms can be due to hypertension, that is increased blood pressure. I would suggest you to check your blood pressure, if it is high, first thing is to take some medication for lowering your blood pressure as soon as possible and for which you need to consult a local physician.

If it is normal, then hyperthyroidism should be ruled out, got that you should under go thyroid function test.

Hope this helps.
I'll be glad to help you out with further questions
Take care
