Numbers are ok: TSH is OK, by most labs, I am not sure about T3, (liothyronine) but I think the problem is somewhere else, specifically an infection, given your symptoms. Would suggest seeing your doc as soon as possible.

YES: Your TSH and free T4 are in the normal range which means your thyroid gland is functioning normally. However, I'm very concerned about the other symptoms. Have you been adequately treated for Lyme disease? Have other likely causes of your symptoms been ruled out? If I were you, I'd want to be sure.
