Your thyroxine dose need to be increase. Your blood sugar level is quite high and symptoms will reduce once you get optimum control of blood sugar levels and TSH. It is advisable you can get HbA1c test i.e approx last 3 months blood sugar average test. Meet any good diabetologist in your area for further treatment
Next Steps
consult diabetologist or endocrinologist
