What Is The Cause Of Increased Heart Rate Post Intake Of Wine In One With Thyroid ?
Hi, I m a 40 yr old female and have been on synthroid for 20 years. Recently I have been waking up in the middle of the night w/ racing heart rate about 120. Sometimes when I lay down, I feel like my heart is fluttering or something. Other than thyroid , I m pretty healthy. Not over weight and work out occasionally. I m not sure but I ve noticed that it is usually after I have had 2-3 glasses of wine earlier in the night. The fluttering is just when I lay down, doesn t happen when i drink. Does this sound like something I should worry about?

hi madam
you have got hypothyroidism on regular treatment
because of the symptoms what you have described ,maybe an overdosage of synthyoid
you have to check the tests -TSH and FT4
kindly reply with the test reports
