My blood tests suggest T3 and T4 to be in range however TSH is way out of range- the value is 9.4 against Bio Ref interval 0.55-4.78
What does this mean? Do i have hypothyroidism?

When TSH level is unusually high compared to T3 and T4 then those patients are considered as suffering from sub-clinical hypothyroidism. They will become hypothyroid if there is any stressful situation. They should be given Thyroid hormone for 2 months and then TSH test repeated.
