In generally healthy people without kidney disease, urine odor depends almost entirely on foods and fluids consumed.

Super high thyroid parameters combined with an abnormally low serum TSH means you have an overactive thyroid that requires treatment. Your physician will advise you about this. The sulfur odor in your urine can be caused by bacteria that is from a bladder infection or from vulval bacteria contaminating normal urine as it exits the bladder.
