Ranges?
But what's your T3? that's really the only important one if you are taking T3. If you have racing heartbeat and high temp you could be over replaced, but without T3 result, you can't really tell.
maybe you are taking more T4 than your body would like....I'd increase the T3 and reduce the T4 to be honest......
and yes, why no fT3 test?
I agree with nobodysdriving. I get severe joint pain with too much T4. Mild joint pain if it's not too much. I also get fatigue and weight gain with too much T4. It may be that you would be better with less levo and more T3. This may be temporary while you body sorts itself out but it's got to be worth a try. People with adrenal issues or who have been unwell for a long time often need more T3 and less T4 until their bodies have recovered.
I hope you get your meds sorted

I didn't feel good on 20ug T3. Have you tried 10ug as I felt better on that.
Don't know what to try,doctors refuse testing t3 even thought I take it
