Hypothyroidism after breast cancer?

It sounds like side effects of Anastrozole to me. I'm taking Anastrozole. My blood pressure is getting higher, I've gained 5lbs so far, and have blurry vision. I exercised regularly (running, swimming, weight lifting) and don't snack anymore, but couldn't loose weight.

I'll definitely bring it up to my onc. I've been on exemestane for a year, and I began to notice these symptoms about three months ago. I actually tried anastrozole first, but had to stop after two months, because it caused trigger finger in both thumbs (so did letrozole). Honestly, these new symptoms are not a huge deal, but I would like to know the cause.
