Have you had any scans done on your thyroid? Ultrasound.....Iodine Uptake scan?
Were you tested for Graves Disease?
You need to know what your Free T3 is along with the Free T4. Your Free T4 isn't even mid normal range according to my lab ranges. What were your lab ranges?
Don't give up just because one endo says your fine.  Something is going on with a TSH of 0.07!
