Hello!
Welcome and thank you for asking on HCM!
Regarding your concern, I would explain that your symptoms may be related to anxiety.
The
tingling in your right hand may be caused by a pinched nerve during sleeping (a mild form or Saturday night palsy). It is usually transitory and recovers spontaneously. But it can be associated with a
panic attack in the morning, when you wake up with this feeling.
Depression and
hypothyroidism are closely related to anxiety.
I would recommend consulting with a
neurologist and performing a
nerve conduction study to exclude possible pinched nerve in your upper limbs.
Did you experience other symptoms like difficulty speaking, head spinning etc?
A transitory ischemic attack could also cause this symptomatology. Your past medical history is really concerning and every suspicion shouldn't be underestimated.
I recommend performing a Doppler
ultrasound of the neck vessels, to examine the blood flow to the brain and some other blood lab tests:
- complete blood count
- PCR, sedimentation rate (inflammation)
- coagulation tests
- fasting glucose
- cortisol plasma levels
- kidney and liver function tests
- blood electrolytes, etc.
If all the above mentioned tests result normal, the main cause of your symptomatology would be just anxiety.
Hope to have been helpful!
Best wishes,
Dr. Iliri
