Hi,
Thanks for using Healthcaremagic,

You are having Hypothyroidism and High blood pressure and taking Micardis for blood pressure. You have not given any Thyroxine supplementation you are taking.
You must be taking Duromine for weight loss I presume but it has lot of side effect like it can increase blood pressure and palpitations irregular heart rate.
Pain in neck or thyroid glad may or may not be related to Duromine.

The most effective and safe method of weight loss is taking care of diet low calories and regular exercise is best.

You must consult your Physician regarding use of this medicine. I would suggest please do not take this medicine by yourself.

Hope this information helps you.
Wish you good health.
Take care.
