I got my thyroid tested. My TSH level was 1.75 (normal), my T4 was normal, but my free T3 was low. What does this mean? I won't see my doctor until the 24th and I'm nervous b/c I read this stuff about having messed up T3 levels is caused my pituitary tumors.
Any thoughts?
Thanks!

Not necessarily. I would go to www.ithyroid.com, lots of good reading there. It could still be hypothyroid. Your body is not converting the T4 into T3 well.
