Bablondie, I'm with Wanda on this - have you had your cortisol levels checked? An undiagnosed adrenal problem would make treating your thyroid troublsome; it might make you feel worse at times.
Are you still showing antibodies? Hashi's patients can experience both hypo and hyper symtoms because of the nature of the disease; the antibodies attack the very mechanism by which your thyroid makes hormones so few get out into your body. When the antibodies 'take a break' your thyroid continues pumping out hormones at the same level and you can become hyper for periods of time.
I'd focus primarily on my FTs and not my TSH, as well. Once you start taking meds TSH isn't important and it shouldnt be used to determine doseage; you do that based on FTs. The more I think about it the more I think "adrenal fatigue", frankly.
