What Causes Discomfort In Ankels When Suffering From Hyperthyroidism?
Hi, I am on medications for Hyperthyroidism & palpitation for little over a year. I am 47 years old lady. For almost a month I started feeling heaviness & dis comfort in my both ankles. I like to mention for almost month & a half I did not have my period. This is the first time happened in my life. I thought I may be pregnant then I checked with pregnancy test strip, it was negative. What could be the reason for all of this things happening?

Hello,
It could be that your thyroid medication needs to be adjusted or it could be a side effect of your medications. Other causes are less likely but in any case you need to see your doctor for an exam and some blood tests.
