Is Severe Chills Associated Thyroid Problem?

My doctor said my thyroid might be acting up. I m getting chills when it s 70 degrees outside and I am having a hard time losing weight every week even though I changed my diet drastically. Do I need to take a medication for it? I m already on 10 other medications for different things.
