Bevs, your TSH is high enough for you to experience hypothyroid symptoms but your GP isn't going to diagnose it until TSH is over range according to UK guidelines.

If symptoms don't improve ask for another thyroid test in 3 months and make sure to have the blood draw early in the morning when TSH is highest.

Ask your GP to test ferritin, vitamin D, B12 and folate as hypothyroid patients are often deficient/low and these deficiencies can cause musculoskeletal pain, fatigue and low mood similar to hypothyroid symptoms. Post your results with the lab ref ranges (the figures in brackets after your results) in a new question and members will advise whether supplementation is required.
