according to those:


you Thyroid Stimulating Hormone is VERY low - sure you have the decimal in the correct place/correct units?

TSH = LOW


Everything else is normal/normal low - this probably means that you have subclinical hyperthyroidism - in other words it will most likely resolve on its own.


Interestingly - depression WILL lower TSH in the same way

the number is right..yes I know my TSH is LOW...but somebody else on thyroid forum wrote me that if I have LOW T4 + low TSH I'm HYPOTHY...so now I'm really confused!!!


My old test 3 month ago when I been on SYNTHROID 200mg + thyroid pills {comb t3/t4..something like armour} the results WAS

T4 12.3 normal 6.09-12.23
T3 45 normal 32.0-48.4
T7{FTI} 5.54 normal 1.95-5.92
TSH 0.025L normal 0.35-5.6

After this I slow down my dosage and now I'm currently takeing just combination t3/t4. and the results is UP!!!

The links I sent you explain this, sasa.

Well, low TSH and low T4 is not the same as normal/high TSH and low T4.

I will leave it at that.

"A low TSH result can indicate an overactive thyroid gland (hyperthyroidism)"

http://www.labtestsonline.org/understanding/analytes/tsh/test.html

He is saying you probably are HYPER not HYPO ... Did you call your doctor & ask them to explain it fully?

Also from that website:
A standard reference range is not available for this test. Because reference values are dependent on many factors, including patient age, gender, sample population, and test method, numeric test results have different meanings in different labs. Your lab report should include the specific reference range for your test. Lab Tests Online strongly recommends that you discuss your test results with your doctor.

I think you should wait to talk to your doctor - you don't want to screw around with thyroid and a bunch of different answers from people.

The individual values have one meaning but a combination of values have another.

low TSH and low T4
AND
normal/high TSH and low T4

do not share the same diagnosis
