So I was at the norm TSH of around 2. Then they tested my thyroid cause I was having anxiety etc. My TSH was .37 and my T3 was 1.81?
She said it is either due to meds it the weight I lost..which was due rmto hyper state. Confused

Are you on synthroid or a thyroid compound? If so, you may simply be over-medicated. I would assume they adjusted the dosage and scheduled a follow-up in 6 to 12 weeks?

Synthroid. They took me from 112mcg to 75 mcg and schedule for me to do a 4 week blood test.

Good, it sounds like your doc is doing the appropriate follow up. Be patient, you probably know it takes time for levels to rise or drop and to stabilize.
