Hi welcome to HMC. Thank you for posting your query.
Muscle cramps is the most common symptom in both hypo and hyperthyroidism. After total thyroidectomy, hypothyroidism develops in the body as there is no thyroid to produce thyroid hormones. Hope i have answered your question. If you have any further questions i will be happy to help.
