Please tell us complete thyroid profile. TSH level alone will not be sufficient. You have been on Thyronorm for more than 4 years You should get liver and kidney function tests , and X ray of knee.
Next Steps
With all the information please consult a General Physician on Practo

6.90 is Not Bad. Do you take medicine regularly or skip doses? Pain in legs can be due to other causes also. Hypothyroidism is rarely Painful.
