I'm really worried about my TSH level, which is at 36.28. I've felt super depressed and can't stop wanting to eat more. I'm currently on a 100 mcg tablet, but should I be thinking about increasing it? I try to exercise daily for about 30 to 40 minutes. Since I'm staying in a hostel, what kind of food choices should I be making to help get my thyroid under control? Also, I can't seem to lose any weight. Any advice?
