Your very hypo are you on meds?
Your TSH is way way too high, your FREE T4 should be above 1.55 which is mid range if you are female and it should be about 1.55 if you are male.
The T3 I'm assuming is a total and is at about mid rnage, but your FREE level may be low.

Re: lab results..... HELP!!!!!!!!
I have been on the Armour for 6 weeks and WOW what a wonderful change.

I just got my results and here they are

Free T4 0.7 (0.7-1.9)

TSH 8.48 (0.35-5.00)

We are bumping up to 60mg BID and doing a recheck in 6 weeks.
I have dropped 7 pounds and my joints no longer hurt (synthroid and lavoxyl symptoms) I feel like a human again. I can sleep at night and I dont have the body temp problems. My memory is getting better. Life is GOOD.
