Endocrinologist,  's  Response
Hi dear user
I have gone through your question.
I can understand your concern.

You have the symptoms of hypothyroidism.Your TSH is high and this means hypothyroidism too.

My advice is to see an endocrinologist in your area ,to do the thyroid tests(free T3and free T4) to understand the thyroid function and an thyroid ultrasound for the thyroid structure.This are important for the definitive diagnose and the treatement.
According to your symptoms and TSH in my opinion you need to restart the treatement with Levothyroxine and you must talk with your doctor for the right dosage.

Hope this information is helpful for you.
If you have other doubts ,i will be happy to help.
Wish you good health.
