Hi, dear
I have gone through your question. I can understand your concern.

You have hypothyroidism and you are taking levothyroxine. You abdominal bloating and throat feeling is not due to levothyroxine.
You are already taking is from a week so its not allergic effects or intolerance to drug.
You may have some stomach problems.

You can take drugs like pentoprazole. If problems remain persistent after it then consult your doctor. Continue levothyroxine according to advice.

Hope I have answered your question. If you have any doubts then feel free to ask me. I will be happy to answer. Thanks for using health care magic. Wish you very good health.
