My son had some blood work done due to chronic diarrhea among many other things (he's on the autism spectrum, ADD, sweetest kid ever-had to throw that in) and we were trying to rule out celiac and who knows what else. Anyway his TSH and Free T4 were normal, but his Free T3 was slightly high. We rechecked it 4 weeks later and it's still just slightly high, with the other numbers being normal. His doctor thinks we shouldn't worry and should just monitor, I'm just looking for any advice if anyone has seen this because I keep reading that typically Free T3 is high when TSH is low?

Thyroid :: Tsh Low, Free T4 High, Free T3 Midrange
Here are my lab results from 2/7/14:
tsh- .028 range- .45-4.5
t4 free direct- 1.86 range-.82-1.77
t3 free serum- 3.2 range- 2.0- 4.4
Last year:
lab results from 3/26/13:
tsh- .096 range- .45- 4.5
t4 free direct- 1.53 range- .82- 1.77
t3 free serum- 3.1 range- 2.0-4.4
It looks like I might benefit with the addition of t3 meds. (cytomel) to lower my free t4 and raise my free t3. I feel fine, and anytime I've tried to lower my dose of levothyroxine (.125) even a little bit (.112), I get brain fog, lethargy and GI symptoms. I've been on the same dose for 13 years and my tsh has been low since I started medication. I've only recently requested the free t3 & free t4. My main concern with adding cytomel is that it will further reduce my tsh & the dr will be concerned. This is my 3rd dr in the 7 years since I moved south & every one has been concerned about bone density & heart issues. Any suggestions when I talk to the dr? btw- no hyper symptoms :-) Thanks!

I have depression and would like get my thyroid ranges in a more normal profile to see if it had a positive effect on the depression.

Thyroid :: Low TSH Normal Free T4
I am getting really frustrated with my dr. D not really giving me answers! In april 2013 my TSH levels were .48 (within normal range) I got tested last week on Friday and my TSH levels are .25 and my free T4 is 1.1 (within normal range). I have been feeling really sick lately with very bad nausea (I am not pregnant) and have just been feeling really down with a rapid heart rate of 103 bpm! My dr says I'm obese and that's why I am having these symptoms but seems to be ignoring my thyroid test results. Is it because it's not low enough to worry about and it's really no big deal yet? I also have many nodule and one takes some color.

I've been on Synthroid medication for 20 plus years and have done pretty well on it until recently. This routine test showed a TSH level > 100 and my Free T4 at .24 which is low. I've been placed on Synthroid at 300 mg and I'm waiting to see a specialist. In the meantime, I'm wondering what does this means?

I've had Hashimoto's Disease for 12 years and started taking Levothyroxine. For the past 8 years, I've been on a constant dose, and been very happy with no symptoms of hyper or hypo. Recently I moved and had to go to a new dr, who is very upset about the low (almost zero) TSH even though my Free T3 and Free T4 were normal. She wants me to totally go off all Levothyroxine for 6-8 weeks to "reset" my pituitary. I am very worried about what will happen to me if I did this. I tried going down in dosage, but all my hypo symptoms (gained 10 lbs in a month, extreme lethargy, depression, etc.) returned. Anyone out there have any ideas on what to do?

Last week I found that my my TSH was 5.73 mIu/L and shortly after that, that my Thyroid Peroxidase AB was 393 Iu/mL. My T4, Free came back at 1.3 ng/dI which I believe is in the normal range. I am currently waiting on my Thyroglobulin AB. Has anyone has an elevated TSH and Thyroid Peroxidase AB but a normal range T4 and still been diagnosed with a Thyroid problem?
View 6 RepliesThyroid Disorders :: TSH Low, Free T3 And T4 Normal Range
I am 37 years old and about 16 weeks pregnant. When I had my first set of prenatal labs, my TSH came back as low at 0.0643. They called me back in to do a thyroid panel, and I just got my results back which were TSH 0.092, free T3 3.6, and free T4 0.95. The nurse made note that T3 and T4 were in normal range, but TSH is "very low" and they referred me to maternal fetal medicine. The doctor's note says "may need small dose of Synthroid."
I am very confused now. Doesn't a low TSH mean HYPERthyroidism? And wouldn't Synthroid be for HYPOthyroidism? I am finding so much conflicting information online, and I have to wait until my appointment on the 21st to get an answer on all this. Of course, it's all making me very nervous. Can someone help explain or shed some light on my lab results as far as what they could mean? I was seeing that a lower-ish T4 and low TSH can actually indicate hypo, so I'm really confused now.

Hypothyroidism? Low Free T4 Normal Low TSH
I have been having low free T4 (9 pmol/L), but normal although on the lower end TSH (1.69 mIU/L).
My doctor has put me on 75mg/day synthroid, because his diagnostic is hypothyroidism. However, I understand that hypothyroidism is normally associated with low T4, but high TSH.
Based on what I have read, it seems that a low T4 associated with a normal TSH may be linked to issues with the pituitary gland (and not the thyroid) or issues with binding agents.
Is hypothyroidism and the use of synthroid indicated in my case?
