First, you need to correct your TSH levels should be less than five. Second You should get yourself tested for B12 and vitamin D. Correct all these three parameters and most probably your symptoms will go.

Thyroid levels are too high
This is called hypothyroidism
Yes you need a medicine to normalise the deranged thyroid levels
Reason for leg and arm pain is calcium deficiency
