Hyperthyrodism and lack of appetite for bread and nuts

Featured Replies

Hi guys,

 

I would really appreciate your help here.

 

After checking the results of my blood tests it was found that my thyroid hormone levels are too high (beyond the healthy range) which indicates hyperthyroidism.

 

In addition I have discovered that I have a sensitivity to bread and to other foods like nuts and asparagus. After eating a bit of bread or nuts I immediately get nausea, a feverish feeling (like feeling hot and weak) and sometimes even vomiting. Many times after only seeing bread I immediately get a feverish feeling associated with nausea and vomiting.

 

My question to you is: Could there be a relationship between hyperthyroidism and feeling sick after eating or seeing bread or nuts?

What, just bread? What about other starchy foods, or other foods containing gluten?

It's mostly bread but there are other gluten-containing foods like beigels which also make me feel sick and feverish. I also can't stand certain vegetables like asparagus.

To my knowledge no form of hyperthyroidism is linked to food aversion. Except general lack of appetite (though more often an increase is observed).
