For others posting results, please include the normal ranges that are

given on your test results.

My results have the same units, pmol/L, so the normal ranges on my

tests are:

free T3 2.63-5.7

free T4 9.0-19.0

" Optimal " T3 would be in the top 1/4 or 1/3 of the normal range, so I

see the free T3 as being a bit low.

free T4 is a bit high

I would agree with you, and there are lots of other ways that mercury

can mess with thyroid function.

If it was me, I wouldn't take the thyroid suppressing drug. I would

look for a doctor who would prescribe sustained release T3.

On my test results the normal range for TSH is given as 0.3-5.5 mIU/L.

The TSH is useless if the hypothyroidism is centrally mediated

(originating from problems in the hypothalamus or pituitary, organs

that mercury is known to poison). Standard medical text books and

reputable medical websites state this. Doctors, even

endocrinologists, have mostly been trained to worship the TSH test and

do not, in general, understand the limitations. ie your TSH result

means nothing.

What is meaningful is symptoms. Find lists of hypothyroid symptoms

and see if your symptoms match.
