I have been having a high free t-3 level for 2 years now and the endo. say's he doesn't know why. MRI showed no pituitary abnormalities and I can't find anything on-line that can point me to some causes. I am loosing my hair and gaining weight. Anyone out there that has had similar issues?

Need more info:

What is your T-3 level with Labs reference range, and likewise your FT-4 and TSH?

Are you bing treated? If so which treatment? What meds?
