Help with Thyroid test results

Hi,

I would like to get some help with my latest Thyroid test results please.

T3 > 91 ng/dl range 71 - 180

FT4 > 1.19 ng/dl range .82 - 1.77

THS > 0.076 uIU/ml range 0.450 - 4.500

My THS is low because I'm taking Cytomel. I want to get my T3 levels up further. Would it be a bad idea to increase T3 considering my TSH is already so low?

I'm taking 112mcg of T4 daily also.

Thank you

Your TSH is irrelevant, but you need an FT3 test before you make any decisions. That T3 test is a Total, not a Free. :)

Hello,

Thank you for responding. The T3 level I have given is Triodothyronine. Is that free T3? I wasn’t sure.

Thanks.

It's only Free T3 is it says Free. So it would have to be Free Triodothyronine. Triodothyronine just means T3. But, I can tell by the range that the test is a Total T3, not and FT3. :)
