You can't rely just on 1 lab value for treatment.Your symptoms need correlation.Also get a repeat TSH,FT3,FT4 from an authentic Lab & consult for further advise

Do you have any associated symptoms ? What made you check your tsh levels? Do you have any other medication history? Do consult for detailed workup and management.
Meanwhile also get your FT3 and FT4 values tested in blood.
