Abstract
Although there is ample evidence of hyperthyroidism associated with heart failure at old age, few reports exist in the medical literature regarding adults who experience thyrotoxic cardiomyopathy. In this report we describe an adult patient who presented for urgent care with vague symptoms of palpitations, headaches, lower-extremity swelling, and dyspnea on exertion and was found to have congestive heart failure (CHF) secondary to hyperthyroidism.
