I'm asked to check my thyroid levels around three months back, as I have swelling in neck, underarms and fatigue issue. My T3 and T4 levels were normal, but Tsh was 9.39 uIU/ml . Following that the doctor prescribed me Thyronorm 25 mcg and I'm taking it regularly. But my recent reports show that my Tsh has increased to more than 100 uIU/ml and T3 is 0.78 ng/ml and T4 is 4.27 ug/dl . I have also attached my recent test reports. Please guide me on how to proceed further. Thank you.

The dose of thyroxine needs to be increased .
1.6 mcg per KG body weight .
Need your body weight for dosage
