I have not had any problems with my thyroid meds interfering with my anxiety and blood pressure meds. It took approx. 6 months to get my thyroid levels to the correct level. My doctor believes that my thyroid condition is probably the cause of my anxiety attacks and high blood pressure. I have lost 50lbs and feel better that I have in years. You will be amazed how much better you will feel when your thyroid levels are normal.
