Received my test results back. Please let me know what you think.

T4, FREE 1.1 Range 0.8-1.8 ng/dL

T3, FREE 3.3 Range 2.3-4.2 pg

I am still having some lingering symptoms, but am doing much better. Should I push toward the higher end of the range?

Hiya. Remind me, are you on Armour now?

I would take into consideration how long you've been on your current dose as well as your gut, temp and pulse. There is possibly a little room for bumping up your meds if you're not having any symptoms of being overmedicated, unless you haven't been on your current dose for long, in which case you may want to see if things level off first.

Glad you're feeling so much better. Good news!

Yes I am on Armour. I have been at the same dose for 3 months now.

That's enough time for you to have reached a plateau. If your temp and pulse are normal and your gut isn't overactive, you could bump it up a little (even every other day if you want to be careful) to see how you feel.
