TSH rising last 5 years

[JBoneske]

I've posted a few weeks back about hypothyroidism.  Havent seen endo yet but they are doing cortisol before appointment because they have my thyroid numbers.  
below range free t4 at .6.  . 7 is bottom of range.  low 16% of free t3 range.  so neither good.  
anyway, I don't know much about this.  my free T4 has been under range for at least 5 years.  
looking at my TSH numbers they have gone from 1.72 to 3.02 in like 4 years.  I've had terrible symptoms in the last year  coincidentally as my TSH has risen.  
Does this mean that I cant take low T4 levels anymore and my body is trying to make up for it by pushing more TSH?

Since there was so much important information in your prior thread,  I have brought that back up and answered there, so we should just ignore this new thread.
