You may have sub cli: You may have subclinical hypothyroidism with slightly eleveted TSH and normal t4, good chances your T3 (liothyronine) will be normal too.

Likely: Your T3 (liothyronine) is likely normal. However your high TSH value indicates that you're thyroid function is most likely low and needs to be supplemented.
