You are very welcome.
Sorry for the typo in paragraph two. It should read as follows, "A good thyroid doctor will treat a hypothyroid patient clinically by testing and adjusting Free T4 and Free T3 as needed ..........
The tests for T3 Uptake and Free Thyroxine Index are outdated and not very useful. When already taking thyroid med, TSH is also not very useful, since in the majority of cases it becomes suppressed when taking adequate thyroid med. Your Free T4 level is above mid-range which is good. Your Free T3 is right a mid-range, which is lower than needed by many people. You need a source of T3 in your med in order to raise your Free T3 level as needed to relieve symptoms. Your Reverse T3 is okay and the ratio of Free T3 to Reverse T3 is 1.7. which is a bit low, consistent with what I said about needing to increase your Free T3 level.
A good thyroid doctor will treat a hypothyroid patient clinically by testing and adjusting Free T3 and Free T3 as needed to relieve symptoms, without being influenced by resultant TSH levels. Symptom relief should be all important, not just test results.
You can confirm what I say by reading the first two pages of the following link, and more if you want to get into the discussion and scientific evidence for all the recommendations in the paper. Note especially Fig. 1 on page 7 of the link. That will provide a clear picture of all the processes and variables involved with achieving adequate tissue thyroid effects. It totally blows up the idea of the one doctor that TSH tells her all she needs to know.

Hypothyroid patients are frequently low in stomach acid and thus don't adequately absorb vitamins and nutrients. For that reason they are typically low in Vitamin D, B12 and ferritin. So you need to get those tested and then supplement as needed to optimize. D should be at least 50, B12 in the upper end of its range, and ferritin should be at least 70, and some sources say 100. In addition, cortisol is an antagonist of thyroid hormone, so it would be good to test for that.
When you see the new doctor on Thursday, if you run into resistance in getting the tests done, you can give the doctor a copy of the entire paper in the link above and ask him to read and reconsider. it will also be important to find out if the doctor is willing to treat clinically, as described, and also if willing to prescribe T3 type meds. If either answer is no, then you will need to locate a good thyroid doctor that will do both
Please keep us tuned in on your progress.
Before discussing further, if possible please post your thyroid related test results from the time you were first diagnosed as hypothyroid. If not available, can you tell us if you were diagnosed as having Hashimoto's Thyroiditis or not? Also, at that time were your symptoms any different from current? Have you been tested for Reverse T3, Vitamin D, B12, ferritin, or cortisol?
