Hello, you are suffering from hypothyroidism as you said and you are on correct medication 125 thyroid medicine. Your tsh is not under control, as it is 12, if you are taking this medicine regularly than you need to adjust dosage by increasing it to 150 mg, daily, and repeat tsh after 6 weeks, further you need to do lipid profile, and your ecg done. To evaluate your status. If any further clarification is required ask private question. Thanks Dr. J rangwala.
