New blood tests

Hi again all,
Here are my results, I wasn't converting T4 to T3 so good but have been supplementing with 200mg selenium for a few months and FT3 has increased . I also take 2000iu Vit D , B12 and 100mg Thyroxine

Was wondering if it might be better to add T3 meds ?

FT3    4.48        range 2.8 - 7.1
FT4    18.0        range 12 - 22
TSH   0.20        range 0.27 - 4.2

thanks for any input .

What were your FT4 and FT3 results before starting on the selenium?  Also have you tested for ferritin?  What symptoms if any, do you have?
