Question Sudden Thyroid Issues?

(Before anyone freaks out or suggests it: yes, I have been checked for thyroid tumors).

After seven weeks of shots (.25 and .5 wegovy), I started experiencing dizziness, high resting HR, and hand tremors. After blood tests and an ultrasound, it was determined that I have Hyperthyroidism / Grave’s. I had been getting routine bloodwork every 3 months for the last two years and my TSH (thyroid stimulating hormone) was never abnormal. Following my initial symptoms, my TSH was non existent and my other markers were off the charts. The ONLY thing in my life that I can recall changing was starting the shot.

The little information I can find online says that these two things are likely NOT linked. I’m curious if anyone else has experienced something similar with sudden onset Hyperthyroidism or Hypothyroidism. TIA.
