Hi, dear
I have gone through your question. I can understand your concern.

You have history of grave disease and hashimotos thyroiditis. Now you have hypothyroidism. High TSH suggest hypothyroidism. You need to take synthroid or eltroxin like drugs to control your thyroid hormones. Then if your tightness remains persistent then you need other investigation. Consult your doctor and plan accordingly.

Hope I have answered your question. if you have any doubts then feel free to ask me. I will be happy to answer. Thanks for using health care magic. Wish you a very good health.
