hi, your TSH level is very high. it suggest you have hypothyroidism. hypothyroidism is directly related to the weight gain. so its clear cut that you are suffering from hypothyroidism and thats why you have gain weight. dont worry you can take medicine to control that. you can use thyroxin according to your doctors advice. you will definitly get benefit from that.
