Have thyroid retest: Your thyroid should be retested in case the dose is too high. Your heart is likely fine, but talk to your doctor about your concerns. There are different forms of thyroid as well. Your dr should know how to treat anxiety. See a psychologist for therapy and a psychiatrist if your own doctor prefers to refer you for medication. Get good sleep, exercise reasonably, keep a healthy diet and consider yoga, meditation, and or acupuncture as alternatives.
