Has any one had fluttering feeling in the neck a weird feeling sometimes it happens in the chest causing palpatations
Hi Rachel
Yes I have had these exact same symptoms and they were really bad before I got
diagnosed hypothyroid. I now take levo 100mcg!
These symptoms have calmed down quite a bit, but not stopped altogether but I do have another underlying health problem that does not help.
Have you been prescribed any meds?!
I am just on thyoxine 50 mcg iv been on the same dose for 10 yrs I have had the fluttering yrs ago but then went a long time without the fluttering its horrible iv been on hospital but they couldnt find anything but I think it has somet to do with the thyroid iv started with anxiety now im afraid to go out incase I get these feelings in neck and chest tsh was 1.19 t4 was 16 x
Hi Rachel
I am sorry to hear that you are having problems getting out!
Unfortunately the Thyroid can play havoc with the body.
If you have fatigue this can lead to anxiety as your body uses
adrenaline to compensate for the lack of energy and this can
give you anxiety too.
I will send you a pm with some info
Thank u . I have just got bk from docs and he has upped my dose even tho im in normal range and he has just given me the results off my 24 hr ecg and iv been having eptopic beats so now I no it wasnt all in my head like hospital were tellin me .
Hi Rachel
Really glad you have got to the bottom of the problem!
I had the similar problem and was put on a higher dose
even though I was in the normal range!
Don't understand why there is so much emphasis on trying
to tell people it's all the mind
???!!
I found out after recent surgery in hospital that if you have
low oxygen levels this can cause anxiety too...it's printed on
the back of the chart where they record temp, BP and respiration!!!
Thanks for the reply I just hope by takin the extra thyroxine dosnt make me feel worse.fingers crossed x
