Waiting for armour samples

Okay so doctor is switching. She thinks that I am having a hard time with these synthetics. So I have to wait for her to call my endo for the conversions. I told her I need 30mg of it which is equal to what I am takng now.
Results made sure they were free t3 and free t4

tsh 1.16
1.4 free t3
2.75 free t4

she has me going back in two weeks when I make my switch also having check sed rat by mod west??? I am not sure what that is. She thinks I might be having b12 problems as well as d problems, but is making me wait until I see the endo. She is worried about my weight but noticed the swelling. Doesn't make sense. She said the antibodies have confirmed that it was hashi's and I have all problems of hashis but now saying it could be acute thyroid/hypo or subacute thyroid/hypo. I am sticking with hashi's because of this bipolar disorder.  I asked if I could have tsh levels dropped to stop the attacks, but I think she wants to wait for my endo appt. This is all I know now, I just keep swinging and then I become clear, only to start it all over again!

Your ranges indicate where you are on the scale. Your actual reading should be followed by a column next to it that indicate a range of where you lie in it on the lab report

Your Free T3 and Free T4 results look turned around.
Is it possible you typed it wrong?

Lab ranges would help, as Laura said.
