Hi, dear
I have gone through your question. I can understand your concern.

You have diagnosed with hyperthyroidism. You are taking drugs but still your symptoms persist. You should go for Free T3, Free T4 and TSH level. Continue your medicine and test after a month. If all levels are normal and your symptoms remains persistent then we need to search some other cause.

Hope I have answered your question. If you have any doubts then feel free to ask me. I will be happy to answer.
Thanks for using health care magic. Wish you a very good health.
