Need TSH level: The TSH level will be the best indicator of your thyroid level. However, if this is normal, it means that your symptoms are not related to your thyroid level. Your symptoms are extremely common ones, and can be due to thousands of reasons. Following a low carbohydrate/starch diet and doing regular aerobic exercise is the best way to improve how you feel.
