Hi
Apparently it seems that you have symptoms suggestive of low calcium or hypocalcemia. It is a known side effect of thyroidectomy. You should be properly evaluated for signs of hypocalcemia in clinic and then investigated further. If hypocalcemia is found, it needs to be treated accordingly.
Hope I am able to help...
