I am adjusting to a new thyroid medication dosage after moving to Germany. I was switched from Synthroid 100 to L-Tyroxin 75, which caused significant anxiety and nervousness. My endocrinologist prescribed Xanax 0.5 mg three times a day, but I only feel relief in the evening. Why does Xanax not help with my morning anxiety, and should I increase the dosage or consider other medications?

I have not been involved in any sexual activity for the past year, but I have been masturbating frequently (15-20 times a week). I have stopped for the past 10 days, but I am experiencing symptoms such as shivering, shaky hands, shortness of breath, weakness, hair turning white, blurred vision for a few seconds, white patches on my hands, and a sudden feeling of fullness and vomiting sensation. Can you diagnose what is causing these symptoms?
