High TSH: A TSH of 6 is only slightly high. If you feel well, you may not need to do anything. If your TSH continues to rise and your ft4 falls, they your thyroid is probably failing and you should begin taking levothyroxine. Iodine deficiency can cause a goiter and elevated tsh, but i-deficiency is very rare; i is plentiful in our diet in many forms.
