Suggest Treatment For Mood Swings While Suffering From Hypothyroidism

Dear Doc I have had severe mood swings lately since last 2 weeks. I suffer from hypothyroidism though all TSH, T3 and t4 are in range lately. But i feel joint pains, stiffness and falling hair from from more than half a year. Aggression is getting accompanied with the bouts of anger these days. Loss of mental peace. Please advice how to proceed. Do i need to also get test for reverse T3 and antibodies?
