Dream of birds and beasts, touch your neck

The thyroid gland and the nervous system are closely connected. If the thyroid gland is 'slightly defective', the nervous system immediately reflects 'chickens flying and dogs jumping' through dreams. Therefore, when you dream of animals such as birds and beasts, you should first touch your neck to see if the thyroid gland is swollen.

A middle-aged woman accompanied by her family came to see a doctor. The woman was very talkative and talked endlessly. She introduced that she had been in a car accident some time ago and suffered serious trauma. She recounted the entire scene of the car accident vividly several times. She interrupted me when I mentioned her physical condition several times, so I had to chat with her for a while. She told me that she had always loved to dream about her in the zoo recently. Many birds and beasts surrounded her, and she couldn't drive them away. She was awakened several times in her dream by the screams of animals. At this point, she stroked her chest and sighed with lingering fear.

I have been observing her carefully. She seems to be very excited, her language is confused, and she is very hot. She can't stop breathing heavily, her hands and feet are trembling slightly, and there is no time to stop. His expression was anxious and irritable, and his eyes were slightly prominent.

Finally she asked me: 'Doctor, why do you think I am always uncomfortable? Am I really sick?'

'Is your physiology normal?'

'Not normal.'

'Do you always want to eat recently and your weight is losing?'

'Yes, how do you know?'

After getting her consent, I reached out and touched her neck. Sure enough, there was a hard object under her neck. I told her and her family that after preliminary diagnosis, she might have hyperthyroidism, which is often called hyperthyroidism.

The thyroid gland is the largest endocrine gland in the body. brownish red, divided into left and right leaves, connected in the middle, in an 'H' shape. This small mass is not simple. It participates in the coordination of almost all organs and can promote metabolism, increase oxygen consumption in most tissues, and increase heat production. It can also promote growth and development, which is crucial for the development and growth of long bones, brain and reproductive organs. The most important thing is to increase the excitability of the central nervous system. In addition, it also strengthens and regulates the effects of other hormones and accelerates heart rate, strengthens cardiac contractility and increases cardiac output.

Consort Jin, the concubine of Guangxu in the Qing Dynasty, was suffering from hyperthyroidism. She was called the 'big neck' disease in the old saying. Before she fell ill, she looked quite beautiful. Later, a long period of insinuation in the palace made her nervous and worried, and she suffered from hyperthyroidism. Her face began to change and became thick and fat, which made it even more unpopular with Guangxu and Cixi. She could not receive effective treatment under depression and died before she was 50 years old.
