TSH is thyroid stimulating hormone which is produced by our pituitary gland and T3 and T4 are hormones produced by our thyroid gland. Values of both are normal in your case. Basically it means that you do not suffer from hypo or hyperthyroidism. So alternative diagnosis for your problem needs to be made
Next Steps
Consult nearby endocrinologist for confirmation of diagnosis and appropriate treatment if required
