Yes, as far as I know, a TSH of 5, with normal levels of T4 (ie, not hyper levels of thyroid hormone) is indicative of subclinical hypothyroid, which could be the culprit in your not feeling well.
Since you were helped by the thyroid hormones, it is hard for me to understand the docs taking you off of it. I hope your new doc is more reasonable.
Check out www.thyroid-info.com, which has loads of info and links to more info. You can even look up good endocrinologists in your area on the topdocs page.
