New to Tyroid disorder results

Hi, In 3 years gained 25 lbs and cannot lose weight. I try 5-6 small meals and tend to lose 2 lbs then spike back up once I eat differently.  Never had a weight issue, thought at first age (49) or premenopausal, not the case. Used to get headaches, more than normal hair loss also at times at night have to catch my breath.  So alarmed at the rate of the weight, it is like a air tube is attached to my belly button!   Thank you in advance.

These labs show mild hypothyroidism which may be contributing to a small degree to the weight.  Maybe you should see an endocrinologist to discuss this and other options.

Hi just saw the doctor again today and my new bloodwork within a month of previous.  Here are the results tomorrow start on 50mcg Levo

Sonogram tomorrow.  Did not feel any nodules best to check.  Also mentioned Hashimoto's Thyroiditis?  Im a nervous wreck.  There are times feel anxiety, times tired and weight gain.
Does this make sense to anyone here?
Thank you in advance.
