Thyroid Blood Test Interpretation please..

I have finally managed to get my blood tests done by an Endo (he wasn't much good apart from agreeing to do the bloods!), can anyone help with the interpretation please. In the letter, he states that they are all "normal"

TSH - 0.84

Free T4 - 20

Free T3 - 4.5

TPO Antibody - less than 10 (negative)

Anyone know what all this mean please? Am still feeling exhausted :-(

Thanks - the Endo sent me a letter, and just printed those results in, he didn't put in the ranges. I don't know what the "normal" ranges for these are.. He just said they were all "normal" and nothing to worry about! :-)

They look like good numbers to be honest. You clearly need further investigation to get to the cause of your tiredness

Well, you can't really tell without the ranges. That FT4 is possibly good, but the FT3 looks on the low side, which would mean she isn't converting for some reason.

Clarabelle, have you had your vit D, vit B12, folate, ferritin and iron tested? If so, can you tell us the results, please?

All your levels are marked low. There are 2 anti body tests and you were only tested for one. I wonder if you don't have some condition that is keeping you from absorbing vitamins and iron. Do you have bowel issues, diarrhea or pain?
