Symptoms varies person to person.

I was in hyper mode and was gaining weight by leaps, low energy, muscle/joint pain, basisclly I feel like I'm coming down with the flu and has had two bouts of bronchitis/pneumonia since RAI treatment.

My advice is to keep talking to the doctor and the people on this board.  They have helped me tremendously.

Have you taken any other test? The raiu, thyroid ultrasond, antibodies tests and the entire thyroid panel blood test.

These test may help answer some of your questions.

I hope this help.

My endo just did a ton of labs, I haven't gotten any results yet. I'll be sure to post as I hear back.

I should clarify...free T4 is 1.44
Also, my labs have been the same for a year and half now and the doctor says my thyroid is enlarged.

Symptoms may vary
The lab points to subclinical HYPERthyroidism;
Do you have any other test results such as RAIU uptake, antibodies testing; ultrasound of the thyroid?
