Suppose the patient has been feeling slight tremors in their fingers when they have an overactive, extended reflex, eye changes, and moist, warm skin. The doctor will first examine their thyroid gland while you are asked to swallow to see if it gets bigger, tender, or bumpy while monitoring your pulse rate to see if it’s irregular or rapid. There are blood tests that help you measure thyroid-stimulating hormone (TSH), and thyroxine can confirm the diagnosis. If you have high levels of thyroxine and low or if the TSH doesn’t exist, and you have an overactive thyroid. You were maintaining the levels of TSH is crucial because the hormones are responsible for the signals that help the thyroid gland to produce more thyroxine.
