What is an Overactive Thyroid (Hyperthyroidism)?
An Overactive Thyroid, or Hyperthyroidism, is a condition in which the thyroid gland produces excessive amounts of thyroid hormones. This can lead to symptoms such as rapid heartbeat, weight loss, irritability, heat sensitivity, and anxiety. In stressful or emergency situations, these symptoms may be confused with cardiac or mental health conditions. Carrying an ICE card helps ensure your diagnosis is known, helping responders deliver more accurate and appropriate care.
