Thyroid illness is a long-term illness like diabetes, hypertension and certain other diseases and requires regular follow-up with your treating physician and micro adjustments of the dosing to achieve acceptable levels in the Blood.
Under treating and over treating the disease can both lead to several adverse effects.
From your report of TSH of 9.25, it is clear that the values are not within the acceptable limits and the thyroid condition that you have needs to be treated.
Next Steps
Kindly consult for further evaluation and treatment for your thyroid illness.
