Hyperthryoidism.HELP!

Hi All!

since we are all nurses here everyone PLEASE let me know what you think. I am planning to call my doctor tomorrow but now I feel like I can't stop thinking about this. Past month or so I have noticed a tremor in both hands. I have never had it before and it does't seem to get better after sleep, less caffeine, anything. I have difficulty when needing to connect IV's or draw up meds because my hands are so shaky I also have noticed i am unable to tolerate warmth I always feel hot. My leg muscles and hips have been super weak all summer (I did take time off from crossfit but my strength not is not even 1/4 of what it used to be and I have always been pretty strong). I also am tachy hr's ranging from 100-120s at baseline rest. I know as a nurse we diagnose our selves all the time but the reason I started digging was from the tremor and I came across graves/hyperthryoid. what does everyone think? I also have lost 10lbs but I blamed it on moving in with my boyfriend and just being super busy with that a new puppy and new job. I am 24 and need answers! No one in my family has this although my dad has type 2 DM.
