Stress depletes cortisol levels - optimal cortisol levels are needed to synthesise thyroid meds. So yes
Yes, absolutely. It's increased cortisol due to stress that causes T4 to convert to reverse T3 not free T3 which the body needs. Also bare in mind being under medicated can cause it's own stress on the body.
My own anxiety and palpitations went, on optimal thyroid medication. See the article below.
