Hi, dear I have gone through your question. I can understand your concern.
You have hypothyroidism and initially you were taking eltroxin. Now you are taking thyronorm.
Your weight gain and tiredness is due to hypothyroidism. So in my opinion you need to increase the dosage. So first you should go for TSH level and if it comes high increase the dosage of drug according to advice of your treating doctor.
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 very good health.
