Did you take your medication before your blood test? If so, it can skew the blood tests with GP adjusting resulting in problems for the patients. Pity they are unaware of this as they may be TSH technocrats.
This is what happens when medication is reduced solely on the result of the TSH and not your clinical symptoms. The scientific answer to this question is informative. Read the first two questions/answers.
Yes the achy collarbones is connected. You need to up your meds. What were your blood results? If you don't have them you should go back and ask for them.
