Brief Answer:
Your dose is correct!

Detailed Answer:
Hello and thank you for asking!
I have gone carefully through your concern.
Your actual dose is ok.
Your TSH is within the normal ranges and can not explain the actual symptoms you prescribed.
You may try to avoid drinking coffee or energy drinks for a period and if the symptoms persist i would recommend to check FT4 and FT3 level.
Hope the information will help.
Please close and rate the conversatiion if you do not have other questions.
