Your TSH is dangerously low.  If you have the following symptoms, get to an ER:
fever
rapid heart rate
nausea/vomiting
diarrhea
irregular heart beat
weakness
heart failure
confusion/disorientation

Call your doctors office back tomorrow and ask them what you should do.  Usually they will have you go off your meds for a few days then start a new, lower dose.

It means you are now hyperthyroid. They will probably lessen your dose of thyroid meds to bring you back up to level.
