TSH Question

Can some one please tell me if I need to start back on a low dose of (2.5) Tapozole my test as of July/14/09 is as following:

                                                RANGE REFERENCE INTERVAL
TSH - 0.100                               0.450-4.500
THYROXINE(T4)   9.0                 4.5-12.0  
T3 UPTAKE  35                          24-39
FREE THYROXINE INDEX  3.2     1.2-4.9
T4 FREE(DIRECT) 1.28                0.61-1.76

THYRO RECEPTOR AB,SERUM 4.79   (RANGE 0.00-1.75) "-Graves results used to be in the 80's"

I stated taking 2.5 (for 1 week) agaisnt my doc's wishes because i was feeling hyper. After one week I started to feel better. I am not taking any at the current time. My Endo thinks that it is my anxiety but I tell him that i know my body...my other question is: would a person feel hyper symtoms with a low TSH and isn't my test results on the high end (which will aslo cause hyper symptoms).   Please Help

Hypo and hyper symptoms are very similar.
You can experience fast heartrate and anxiety at BOTH ends of the scale.
