Dose of thyroxine depends on your body weight . You have not mentioned your current dose of your thyroxine and body weight.
Next Steps
In over hypothyroidism the dose of thyroxine would be 1.6 to 1.8 mcg per KG of body weight . .e for 60 kg body weight one would need approx 100 mcg of thyroxine . Make sure you are taking the tablet on empty stomach and keeping a gap of min 45 mins before you take your breakfast .
Health Tips
high TSH means you are having hypothyroidism ( under active thyroid gland ). If it remains untreated can lead many complications including heart disease .
