Hi
Just wondering if anybody else has had this and what their experience was? Did you find symptoms all disappeared on their own? And if so how long after birth did they disappear?
Thanks

I've had this very recently! I experienced heart palpitations, a very fast pulse (120-150), lots of physical anxiety symptoms, very hot and sweaty, weight loss, tingling all over, struggling to sit still. I was fobbed off with it being anxiety attacks until I went to A and E when my resting pulse hit 130. They diagnosed it there and prescribed propranalol. Propranalol helped reduce all the symptoms and just 4 weeks later its now become underactive so I was prescribed levothyroxine to hopefully stabilise it. Its been really unpleasant but im optimistic it should resolve itself!
