I have a quick question.... When TSH is over 2 and below 3 and no other levels are elevated ( t3 or t4) can you still be treated with synthroid? My daughter has alot of hypo symptons and was told she was within normal range (a term I have learned to hate :) ) She is having a complete physical in April, and I wonder if we should pursue the thyroid issue???? Thanks for any insight.

Hi Trish,


That's a good question.
