Sorry if I'm asking a stupid question but if I increased my T3 would it reduce my TSH. Currently my T3 is 4.21 (3.1-6.8) and my TSH is 0.86 (0.27-4.20).

One doctor (and holistic ones) believes the TSH isn't a reliable way of treating and I'll give a link. Neither did Dr Skinner and Dr Peatfield all trained in the same era.:-

Dr Lowe also wrote a book called 'The Tyranny of the TSH' in which he said that t is the TSH which is 'treated' rather than the clinical symptoms thus many don't recover as they should.
That's about people taking T4. The OP is taking T3. And I would not trust a study that makes no mention of the FT3.
Exactly! I often feel they don't know enough about hypo to do these studies.
