Symptomatic Differences in Hyper & Hypothyroidism

When the human body is exposed to excessive amounts of thyroid hormone the result is a disease known as hyperthyroidism (or thyrotoxicosis). Hyperthyroidism typically begins with a gradual onset of a constellation of symptoms, including increased nervousness and emotional instability associated with a fine tremor of the hands.
