Hi.
It would be more thyroid gland pressing your esophagus then side effects. You should do neck ultrasound do rule this out. Antiacid medicines can be only helpful. These thyroid medicines can cause such symptoms if you take overdose. So try to see blood tests for t3,t4 and change drug dose if necessary.
Wish you good health.
