What is the range that accompanies that T4 result? Can't really make a sensible suggestion without knowing the relevant lab range.
And also very importantly - how are you feeling and what is your exact TSH (with range) please?)
There are many reasons the TSH can be suppressed and not necessarily that your thyroid is functioning well. Your T4 can be in range and also not necessarily converting to FT3 (which is unknown since doctors rarely test i)t. This doctor relates 22 reasons that people still have symptoms no matter what the test results say anyway.
Im on 200mcg of levothyroxine a day and no I didnt take my meds before my blood test
