transmission wont shift out of first!!!!

the overdrive off light is blinking, and when i started to drive it it kind of hopped leaving from a stop and will not shift out of first gear. has anyone had this problem before? it is most definitly not driveable right now. im really getting sick of spending every single day off working on my truck. what happened to the good fords im losing my faith in them. its only got 106000 miles on it and the fluid was recently flushed not even 5000 miles ago. the old fluid looked pretty clean as well. so im kind of in the lost. it pulled up a code for the torque converter and a code for something else i dont even remember what it was now.
