Hello Community,

Looking for advice, helpful hints, reassurance, guidance. I am sort of a basket case!

I have been battling symptoms since March 14th (which I thought was the flu: chills, fever, sweat it out..repeat)

I felt good for about a week and then dipped into my current symptoms: fatigue, cloudy, constipated, feet sweats. Been to Dr. Numerous Times and received a call from my doc this morning regarding possible "Graves"
Here are my numbers:
T3 FREE 4.35 pg/mL 2.50‐3.90H             triiodothyronine, free, serum    04/26/2016
T4, FREE 1.25 ng/dL 0.61‐1.12               H thyroxine, serum, free           04/26/2016
What triggered these!!!!?????????

thyroid stimulating hormone, serum           2.31 u[iU]/mL  0.34-5.60    04/15/2016  

I have a iodine uptake test scheduled for tomorrow. could someone out there shed some light for me. I have normal ranges for TSH but high markers for T3 and T4?????

I pushed for more blood work as my symptoms are so persistent. including Lyme's disease. My mom and grandma both have thyroid disorders! I just want to get back to a quality of life! I am a mess worrying about all of this and not feeling well besides!

Thanks and Please Reply........

Did this come on suddenly?

Research deQuervain's thyroiditis.  An upper respiratory infection can trigger it.  It's characterized by an initial hyper phase, usually followed by a hypo phase.

Have ESR tested.  ESR is significantly elevated with deQ's.  Also, TSI is the marker for Graves' Disease (autoimmune hyperthyroidism).  Have that tested as well to rule it out.  I doubt you have Graves' if your TSH is normal.  What is your TSH?
