HI
Thank for asking to HCM
I really appreciate your concern, from the history given here I could say that your problem of abdomen bloating is not due to the medicine that you are taking " Levothyroxine" but this symptoms could be because of your anxiety and depression, some functional elements are there that might be playing the role, take care and have nice day.
