Hi.
HRT can cause a few gastric issues, but the anxiety is most probably either a side effect of the HRT or due to a hormonal imbalance which was the reason why the HET was initiated. In my opinion, wait for a few days to see if the anxiety subsides and if it doesnt then report to your doctor to help you with your anxiety; especially if it results in lack of sleep.
Best wishes.
