Thyroid overdose with 0 TSH

I have hyperthyroid F 4 1.9 TSH 0, yes 0, Dr was expermenting on controlling my my bipolar cycles by completely supressing it.

300mg for 4 years he monitored it , I thought I was being treated for type 2 diabetes heading for insulin shots, and low thyroid, I did not give consent or know what he was doing, I now have had 2 Thyroid Storms blood pressure 200/100 with chest pain, pressure breathing difiulties overall pain.  In ER twice doped up with Prapanolol and Lisnopril to block effects.  No thyroid medication for one week, took 3 125mg does and into the ER.  Now no thyroid for 6 weeks then labs.

This doctor died, his successor left, and only by a flux the cardiologist checked the thyroid, and also my first ER visit, presents like heart attack. EKGs good

How long to get rid of this, and what damage is my body sustaining.  What is fatal blood pressure
Thank you
