TSH is very accurate. TSH relates hypothyroidism or hyperthyroidism.  

FTs relate the condition or causes and some non-thyroid issues.

My doctor does all three every time I'm tested which is approx every 10/12 weeks for the last 11 years.

I have had carpal tunnel surgery 2 years ago.  I have also had nerve conduction studies that returned normal.  I have been reading that TSH is not always the most accurate measurement of thyroid function.  It is recommended that a T3 and T4 also be done.  Has anyone else had this come up?

Then check into other heal issues.  Thyroid is not exclusive to symptoms and should not be blamed for everything.  Normal people without thyroid issues can have  fatigue, anxiety, weight gain and some do have numbness in hand which could be carpel tunnel syndrome.

Good luck - Good health
