Answer: Grave's Disease

Step-by-step explanation:

According to Goog|e:

Grave's Disease is an immune system disorder of the butterfly-shaped gland in the throat (thyroid).

The thyroid overproduces hormones. The condition is more common in women under age 40.

Symptoms include anxiety, hand tremor, heat sensitivity, weight loss, puffy eyes and enlarged thyroid.

Treatment includes medications. Sometimes the thyroid is removed.

I hope this helps!
