Tsh .01

I have had blood work done that shows my tsh level is .01 with ranges of .34-5.60 my ft4 was 2.37 ranges of .58-1.64 and my total t3 is 2.53 with ranges of .70-1.80, my dr will do nothing for me and it takes 3 months to go to endo. the symptoms are horrible, I feel ill constantly, eye pain and headaches, shaky hands, sweating, cant stand the light to hit my eyes, fast heart rate ex I can go from my living room to my bathroom and then to the laundry room and my heart rate goes to 164. Is there something I can take that might help with my problem, Thanks for any help!

Certainly sounds like you are hyperthyroid - if your doctor won't help you, you need to find another or go to the ER....  there are treatments for thyroid issues and you certainly need help.

Let's forget the TSH at the moment, it is a pituitary gland hormone.
The fact you have High FT4 is very telling of hyperthyroidism, and your symptoms match that.
I would be looking for another local doctor, and asking them for a second opinion. Doctors love being asked that, as they think they are smart and often work harder to help a patient.

  You really need to get some antibody testing done too, as many hyper patients have Grave's and that could be causing you to have issues with your eyes as well.

It is a problem and you need treatment, go get a 2nd opinion, take all your pathology results too, as this helps in saving time and shows the new doctor what they are dealing with.
