I got my tests done for Thyroid. The value for TSH is around 127. I was immediately put on medication. This was around 2 years back. In Jan the test showed that the value is back to Normal 5.5. I am still on medication. However this month the tests were repeated and the value is 11.7. I have no symptoms of thyroid.

This suggests that production of thyroid hormone by your thyroid gland has further reduced hence pituitary gland is trying to stimulate it by producing more TSH. You need to increase the dose of thuroid hormone supplement in consultation of your doctor.
