So Confused

Aside from the 30lbs gained in 3 years, the tiredness,constipation, lack of energy and dry skin I have a Dr. that feels nothing is wrong. I am seeing a nutritionist who is at a loss because I already weigh my food, limited to certain foods due to allergies and the scale continues to go up. Finally lab tests were ordered and then they were never discussed. I was blown off. Can someone tell me what they mean? I need to know if I need to say HEY! Thanks

T3-1.78(0.58-1.59)
TSH-2.86(0.35-4.94)
FT4-1.34(0.70-1.48)
Thyroid Pero AB-<3.00(0.00-5.60)
Thyroglobul AB-14.15(0.00-4.10)

Before trying to provide a meaningful response, would you please double check for me the T3 data.  Is that Total T3, or Free T3?  Also please check the reference range shown.  I have never seen a reference range for either FT3 or TT3 that looked anything like that.  the ones I am used to seeing are more like 87 - 190 ng/d.  Also please check the TG ab result and reference range.  Again, that looks different than what I usually see.  Not saying any of these are necessarily wrong, just want to clarify.
