Hello. Welcome to hcm
You are suffering from hypothyroidism. Your thyroid levels were low,so you have been prescribed thyronorm tablets. Increasing size of nodules with high TSH and low T3 and T4 suggest that your harmone replacement is not correct.
I advice you to consult your doctor immedietly so that he can correct the dosage. You need 100microgram only. You need regular monitoring with tsh so that the values are below 2miu/l.
All the best
