What Causes Chronic Pain In The Body With Tremors?

I am a female 79 yes. I had Graves disease and it was removed May 2016. It has turned my world upside Down. I am a very active person. I was never sick and on no medicine. My symptoms I tremble. I have gained 40 pounds. And my whole body cramped so I had difficulty just straightening up. I have been able to walk even a block without pain. I am a hiker swimmer. What is going on?

Hi,

Well most probably your symptoms are due to thyroid insufficiency but to make sure that this is the cause I need to get some information from you like after removal of your thyroid did the doctors put you on thyroxine or not?

Your symptoms of weight gain and fatigue all are due to low levels of thyroid. If I would be your treating doctor I would definitely order your thyroid profile. Furthermore, if I would have been in your position I would go and consult the surgeon who removed your thyroid about your symptoms.

Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.

Regards,
Dr. Humaira Naerm, Cosmetic & Plastic Surgeon
