Deciphering test results and advice please.

I have been in a horrible work environment for the last 9 months. Prior to this my last TSH level was 1.7 (done right before I moved to this department). As my work situation has worsened, so have my levels evidently. I am experiencing tremors, migraines, shaky voice, serious anxiety (jumpy, weird paranoia-like thoughts) and if I am not anxious - I am bed-ridden with what feels like depression. I have gone from 140 pounds to 121 as well.Total personality change.

I have a full thyroid blood work scheduled for next week. I am a 48 year female with no prior issues like this.

Update - results from follow-up blood work. Doctor indicates normal. In addition, I have been taking half of a 5mg valium everynight and do not have the HORRIBLE morning panic attacks and tremors. Any suggestions? endocrinologist ?

F TSH W/REFLEX TO FT4    0.96  (mIU/L)
F T3, FREE 3.0    2.3-4.2 (pg/mL)
F THYROGLOBULIN ANTIBODIES <1    < or = 1 (IU/mL)
F THYROID PEROXIDASE ANTIBODIES 1 <9 (IU/mL)
