Hello,
All these symptoms which you have mentioned can be seen in hyperthyroidism.
Since you have family history of thyroid disease, its good to be careful. You can go for thyroid checkup six monthly.
Here i would also like to mention that panic attacks can result from hyperthyroidism or otheriwse also.
Please consult your nearest endocrinologist for management of thyroid problems.
Thanks.
