Hello and thanks for writing.

I can understand your concern and would try to help you in the best possible way. Your TSH is on a rapid rise due to discontinuation of medication. This is expected when you quit medications.

But is not desirable to have such a high TSH levels as you may develop symptoms of hypothyroidism.I suggest you consult your doctor and any other doctor and get you thyroid medications refilled as soon as possible.
