Thanks for your question on HCM. In my opinion you should get done repeat thyroid profile to see weather your disease is controlled or not. As you are taking thyroid medicines since 4 years , you should check it every 6 monthly and adjust the dose accordingly. In your case I think, report will be altered and you may need dose modification.
Your all symptoms are looking like thyroid related only. So no need to worry, be calm and get done thyroid profile. Simple dose modifications will help you.
