Levothyroxine and Sertraline

I'm hoping to be diagnosed with hypothyroidism in the next couple of weeks.

However, I'm reading the Levo patient information leaflet online, which says Sertraline (an antidepressant) may affect the way Levo works.

Does anyone here have any experience of taking Levothyroxine and Sertraline?

Thanks.
