Hello,

Your symptoms appear most likely due to thyroid disturbance. As you had a thyroid problem in the past and you have stopped it, most likely it is deranged thyroid hormone levels which are causing symptoms. You can also check your blood sugars because similar symptoms can occur during hypoglycemia. So, I suggest you get your recent TFTs done and consult your physician and if it comes low, start again on thyroid treatment.

Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.

Regards,
Dr. Prashant Gohil
