What do I do if my TSH levels are normal, but my Free T4 is low, and I am having hypo symptoms?
Normal levels are between .7 - 1.9 for free t4, and I am at a .7. Low, but not low enough to catch a doctors eye, even though I am having all the symptoms of an underactive thyroid. I am on Levothroid right now. My TSH test came back at 1.5, very normal.

blood levels of hormons are fine for now. no need to worry for now.
If you dont feel well, get your blood level checked again, reports may not always be correct.
If you are still having problems inspite of repeated normal reports, then the cause of hypothyroidsm need to be searched for. consult your doc.
You are probably on the right dosage of Levothroid. Blood tests are necessary at least every 6 mos. to make sure that the amt of meds taken are helping the thyroid to function normally. If you fall w/i normal range, then you are taking the right amt. If not, it will be adjusted.
