Need Cytomel and Synthroid advice

Please help me to decide on how to build up my Cytomel dose, with my Synthroid dose!!  I have been on 112 mcg Synthroid for awhile now.  Recently my Thyroid labs were as follows and they changed me to 125mcg Synthroid.:  TSH 0.66 (0.4-4.10) UiU/ML  Free T3 2.1 (2.4-4.10)PG/ML  Free T4 1.19 (0.8-1.70) NG/DL  THEN the next labs 11 weeks later were these:  TSH 0.08  (0.34-4.82)UIU and FreeT3  2.11 (2.18-3.98) and Free T4 1.32 (0.76-1.46) NG/DL  Reverse T3 - 16:  The Dr wants me to go down to 100 MCG Synthroid and add 25mcg Cytomel.  This seems too high!!  What should I do?

Before discussing your dosages, please tell us about what, if any, symptoms you have.  Also, if tested for Vitamin D, B12 and ferritin, please post those as well.
