HI.
With these symptoms I would advise such a patient to undergo the tests:
FT3, FT4, TSH and blood sugar along with the routine tests as your Doctor advise on examining you.
I think, Doctor may have to alter the dose of thyroid medication and to start symptomatic treatment .
Please let me know what are the reports and I would like to know the medicines and the doses you already on .
