TSH values: The TSH is your pituitary gland at the bottom of your brain talking to your thyroid gland saying "I don't see enough thyroid hormone around here." It stands for Thyroid Stimulating Hormone. You should speak to a good endocrinologist about your situation pronto and yes you should be on a higher dose of thyroid replacement hormone.
