What Are Thyroid Nodules?
4. Thyroxine Symptoms
Thyroxine is one of the hormones that are secreted by the thyroid gland. The presence of thyroid nodules will often cause the thyroid to become more active than usual, in a condition known as hyperthyroidism. Hyperthyroidism will itself cause a number of rather unwelcome symptoms.
Patients with hyperthyroidism will often sweat more than they otherwise would, and they might also develop tremors. Their hearts can also beat faster than they otherwise would do, and the patient is also more likely to feel nervous even when there is no reason. A lot of patients with hyperthyroidism will also lose weight without explanation.
