TSH much too high for someone on thyroid hormone replacement. Should be 1 or under. But just testing TSH is utterly useless, gives you very little idea what your thyroid hormone levels are.

Ferritin, folate and B12 all too low. Ferritin should be more like 10, folate in double fingures and B12 at least over 550.

So, you're under-medicated and have suboptimal nutrients. You must feel awful!
