Question 1

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?

I'm a bit confused about my vitamin D3 situation. My level is 28.06, and I've been taking Lumia 60k every week, but it's giving me some side effects.

I've been taking 75 mcg and 100 mcg of eltroxin on alternate days since before my delivery, and I've continued the same after. Now that it's been 45 days and my latest TSH test result is 2.2, I'm wondering what dose I should be on from now. Could you advise?
