Hi!
IF you were my patient, I would consult with a general internist or endocrinologist about starting you on some Synthroid medication or other brand of thyroid replacement hormone.  Correcting your thyroid should be relatively easy and should just require some medication and a few blood tests to be certain that the dosage was appropriate for you.  Once your thyroid is normalized, there is a decent chance that you will become pregnant.
Good luck!
