Hello and Welcome to ‘Ask A Doctor’ service. I have reviewed your query and here is my advice.
No need to rush to hospital. These are common initial side effects. You are having hypothyroidism. Your TSH value is 150. This is very high. So thyroid hormone imbalance is high in your body. So you will need at least 10-15 days on thyronorm to balance your hormones. So no need to rush to hospital at present. Wait for 1-2 weeks more. If symptoms still persist then consult your doctor.
Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.
