Sorry no-one has replied.

Your TSH is low but a lot of people who are medicated feel good at that level, or 'suppressed'. FT4 could be higher to feel better. A lot of members suffer when T4 is not converted properly to T3 (active hormone). So all I can suggest is look to underlying factors you may be able to do something about - such as irons, ferritin, folate B12 and Vit D - get tested first then you know levels to supplement. (there's also selenium, magnesium etc.) thyroiduk.org.uk/tuk/treatm...

I only took Vit D & my tremor, muscle ache, joint pain eased - so something as simple is worth testing. (or have a sunny holiday!) J

(try & get FT3 tested for a better idea)
