There, easier to read. Lisabinil is right, you might want to get a FT3 and FT4 test done, I would also add in an RT3 (reverse T3) test as well.
your Total T4 is above range, however the Free T4 will show us what is available for use by your body.
The total T3 is quite low on the other hand, chances are good that your FT3 may be low as well, what that all might mean is that you are producing lots of thryoid hormone (total T4) but not converting it to something your body can use. However we won't know this unless you can test for the Free versions.
You don't need a doctor to have the tests done, healthcheckusa.com has the tests you can order yourself, use coupon 12345 for a discount. they will send the labs to you instead of your doctor but this way you can make sure to get the right information.
