What Causes Shortness Of Breath And Numbness In Hands With History Of Inactive Thyroid Disorder?

Hi, I was diagnosed with inactive thyroid disorder about five years ago. The last three days or so, I have had felt heaviness in my legs, and shortness of breath, also some numbness in both my hands. Could this possibly be because my thyroid levels are low? Thank You.
