Anas Ahmad Sabir1, Kabiru Sada2, Bashir O Yusuf3, Idris Aliyu3.   

Abstract

Thyroid storm is a rare life-threatening emergency due to thyrotoxicosis. A 30-year-old female presented with restlessness, tachycardia and vomiting but with normothermia which is an unusual presentation. There is the need for clinicians to be aware of atypical clinical features that can make the diagnosis of thyroid storm difficult.
