Having various symptoms. Did TSH test and it was 9.0uIU/ml on repeated test. Took levothyroxine 3 days. Redid test for other doctor and result is 0.540ulU/ml & Free T4 2.08ng/ml. He asked me to see a psychiatrist. What do I Do? Why are labs so different in short time? Do I have hypothyroidism?

There can be lab error. Please check at reliable lab. Three days levothyroxine would not cause such changes. You have two very different readings so we don't know which is correct.
