Sublicinal Hypothyroidism
I recently gave thyroid test where t3 and t4 levels are normal but TSH is 9.6. Local general physician said I am having subclinical hypothyroidism I am also having mild jaw and ear pain when checked with dentist, ENT in local both said all were normal. Local physician prescribed to take levothyroxine 25 mcg for a month and come back whether it is okay to continue with this. I am getting anxiety on this..

Yes okay. You probably did a total t3/4, next time do a free level. Not sure what other medication you are on. But a TSH that high most likely requires treatment
