What do these results mean?

I'm pretty certain that these aren't all the tests I need done to get real answers. I have been looking for a doc who will know to do the right tests. Think I finally found one. In the meantime, my current hematologist had these tests done. Can I glean any information from them? Or do I just need to wait for the proper tests?

T3 uptake 37 high (22.0-35.0)
Thyroxine (T4) 5.7 (4.5 - 12.0)
Free thyroxine index, ng/dL 2.1 (1.4-3.8)
TSH, mIU/L 2.95 (no range given)

I had MANY more tests run, so if there are any others that would be helpful let me know and I will post them.

Thanks!
