Yes, your symptoms of a rapid heart rate, hand tremors, weakness, and anxiety suggest your Thyrox (thyroxine) dose may be too high, temporarily mimicking an overactive thyroid. Please do not panic, as this is a very common and easily manageable issue once addressed. I highly recommend consulting your prescribing doctor soon. They will likely order a simple thyroid blood test (TSH and Free T4) to check your exact levels and safely adjust your levothyroxine dosage. Please do not change your dose on your own. You may continue your multivitamin, but ensure your doctor is aware of all supplements you are taking.
