"I had a lot of trouble getting
treatment because my TSH level was non existant. To some doctors this
meant I was very hyper thyroid and needed thyroid suppressants. But my
symptoms AND my free T4 and free T3 told otherwise. Even though my T4/T3
were low, I could not get help because of the blasted TSH."
I have a similiar situation in that my tsh is very below normal while FT3/FT4 are mid-range. My doc says this happens with a few people but he doesn't know why. I sure would like to understand this. Anyone know what causes this phenomenon? (My tsh increases with med decreases and I am not on a large amount of thyroid meds.)
