When were these tests taken?  I have found my need for thyroid
supplementation varies depending on the season.  In mid winter I need the
most. In mid summer the least.  The reason lies in the fact that you get more
natural sunlight in the summer.   People in the Antarctic have developed low
T3 hypothyroidism because they live in total darkness for almost 9 months a
year.
