I was only ever on Cytomel 5 mcg (got up to 10 mcg daily) and Hydrocortisone 5mg (got up to 20 mg daily), but was only on it for 17 days total.  The new Endo I saw said my tests look great and thyroid/hormones are not my problem.  Shouldn't I have a higher Free T3 and Free T4?  The problem is, one doctor runs the Free's and says I'm low, while the next runs every test, but the Free's.

Other members here are more familiar with the adrenal and hormone factor tests  than I am. They also are well versed in anti body tests. I am sure more will post on this question to give you additional guidelines on other things that may be going on.

Good Luck

Great track record on your tests. I wish I would of been so diligent keeping my history :)

I scanned through the old ones but concentrated on your most current in January,

You have alot of T3 going on and your TSH is labeling you as sub clinical Hyperthyroid.

Most thyroid patients find they feel at their best on a TSH level of 1.0 to 1.5 and not to exceed 2.0.

Looks like you may need a tweek in meds. Did your doctor change your dosage after this latest test?  If so - you may need to be a little patient until your next blood draw. If there was no med change - maybe call the office and see if that may be an option since you are feeling off.
