Thyroid storm is considered a medical emergency. Some of the symptoms of thyroid storm include heat intolerance, diaphoresis (excessive sweating), tachycardia (rapid heart rate), hypertension (high blood pressure), arrhythmias, diarrhea, vomiting, jaundice, severe agitation, seizures, and coma.
Graves disease is the most common cause, but surgery, I-131 radiation therapy, DKA (diabetic ketoacidosis), trauma, and pregnancy-related toxemia can also cause the condition.
As I stated before, thyroid storm is a MEDICAL EMERGENCY. If you suspect you are experiencing thyroid storm, please see medical help immediately!

A few months ago, I was very sick, zero energy, freezing cold, depressed, weight gain, thought I was dying. I read every word of this Hypothyroidism Revolution program and followed all the advice. My life turned around the first week. I started to feel human again. Within weeks my energy came back and I felt like living again.
Get the entire hypothyroidism revolution system today? just choose the best option for you.
