Hi GravesLady!  Can you please, please read the following post I made a little while ago and see if you can shed some insight?  You are so informative on this sort of stuff and I value your opinion.  Dr. Lupo asked if I take estrogen supplements, and I don't.  I've tried doing my own research on the web, but I always come up empty-handed.  My doc said the results are normal...but he's been wrong in the past.

Your levels are in Labs range, however, the way they are relating to each other is a concern.  Your T-3 level is high which relates to T-3 thyrotoxicosis and might be the reason for your hyper symptoms. This state only usually last in short duration in Hypo/Hashi's. However, a thyroid binding globulin (TBG) test might explain the high T-3.

I personally have had eye twitching off and on all my adult life, even before being dia. with thyroid.  There are 18 causes of Eye twitching and not just a simple matter as a thyroid issue.
A normal temperature is considered any where between 96.6 and 100. You are running low but still normal range. The important issue is salability regards to thyroid issues, including  along with level relationship to each other. You just might be a low temp. pwerson and low being normal for you.

You just started thyroid meds. therefore you need to give your body time to heal and catch up. Don't rush things, you need to heal first. Stress and anxiety can cause or make worse, all sorts of health issues including thyroid. Relax, don't worry,stop thinking too much and just go on with life, the natural course things will follow.

Your next Labs will tell more. Hopefully your T-3 will come down and your hyper symptoms will subside.


I don't know exactly what your question is, however I hope this helps.
