You need to include the ranges for those tests.

If that's the normal range used in this country for T4 then they are top of the range but not over. There are no free T3 results, you'd need to have those to see if you are over-producing T3 (which is the active thyroid hormone, T4 is the storage form). Also you could do with having antibodies testing, TPO and TG antibodies, as well as TRAB, if Hashi's or Graves' are suspected. A low TSH like yours isn't conclusive and more information is required.

How do you feel in yourself and what is your heart rate like? Do you poo lots? Do you feel irritable? Do you not feel cold?
