Thyroid nodules, nausea

[cbh67]

Hi, I have thyroid nodules, according to an ultrasound done recently, 4 of them, all small. I started with swollen thyroid and nausea, then started taking iodine, as per a skin test that showed I had low iodine. It helped for a while, but symptoms came back. Blood work shows tsh w/reflex to ft4 at 1.41, t4 at 10.4, t3 free at 2.7, and t3 total at 94. this all happened within 4 weeks, now feeling miserable again, very nauseous, trouble sleeping, have taken raw thyroid, iodine(kelp), selenium, multivitamins. Have been told I have Hyperthyroid, but I have Hypothyroid symptoms like weight gain, fatigue, etc. Any help would be appreciated. Have not been to an endocrinologist yet, only GP. I would prefer natural ways to help. Thanks

Do not add iodine to the diet without consulting specialist; skin test is VERY unreliable!!

Please post the reference ranges for your tests, as shown on the lab report.  

On what basis did someone say you were hyperthyroid?  As you said you have hypothyroid symptoms and your Free T3 appears to be too low in the range.
