Hi,
The way you present symptoms except weight gain are all related to hyperthyroidism. However, to confirm it needs investigations to estimate TSH, T3, T4 levels in the blood. I suggest you report to the emergency room for consultation and accordingly you would be treated.
Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.
