Please consider endocrine cause. There are many endocrine disorders that can have similar symptoms. This includes thyroid and other organs. You could consult endocrinologist. If a over functional gland if detected, it has to be removed surgically.
Though infection is a possibility, the symptoms don't exactly fit in. Needs complete workup.
