Thyroid: Your doctor needs to order labs for TSH, free T4, and free T3 (liothyronine) and, based on that information, there may be changes needed to your dose. If your labs are OK the doctor has to find out why you are still not fine.

HYPOTHYROIDISM: HYPOTHYROIDISM can cause a myriad of symptoms. It also may be associated with anemIa of chronic disease and other autoimmune conditions. Get your TSH LEVELS CHECKED and follow up with your doctor to titrate the dose of medication. I have had better response with Armour Thyroid. Also I Recommend a gluten free diet (GAPSDIET.COM) it is higher in saturated fat and may help on other levels.
