Hyperthyroidism may be confused with a disorder fo the autonomic nervous system primarily because of the the permissiveness (biology) of the thyroid hormones on the hormones and neurotransmitters (epinephrine and norepinephrine) of the sympathetic division of the autonomic nervous system. Thyroid hormones exacerbate the effect of the sympathetic nervous system, causing "speeding up" of various body systems and symptoms resembling an overdose of epinephrine (adrenaline). These include fast heart beat and symptoms of palpitations, nervous system tremor such as of the hands and anxiety symptoms, digestive system hypermotility (diarrhea), considerable weight loss and unusually low lipid panel (cholesterol) levels as indicated by a blood test.
