I have questions on my thyroid test results.  I am located in the US.  I had the testing done because I have the following symptoms:

1) Frequent lightheaded/dizzy spells2) Chronic fatigue3) Chronic indigestion (burping, no "heartburn".. nothing hurts, it's just constant belching.  I wake up in the morning burping.  I've had heartburn before.. this is NOT heartburn.  I get excrutiatingly painful chest pain with heartburn, went to the ER twice for it in my 30's thinking I was having a heart attack.. This is just belching)4) Losing hair, dry hair5) Dry skin6) LOW body temperature.  It's never above 96.5 or so lately. 7) Hot flashes occasionally but normally chilled to the bone when others are roasting8) Low appetite9) Can't gain weight, not really losing either, but not a ton of appetite.  Big meals make me want to sleep

I actually had to mark up my own test and I messed up and didn't know Free T tests were more important sooo...

T4:  9.4 (scale 4.5 to 10.9)T3: 110 (scale 71 to 180)TSH:  1.39 (scale .35 to 5.50)

Vitamin D:  28.6 (this is up from 16.6 3 months ago)

Cortisol AM: 110 (scale:  4.3 to 22.4)

I am a 46 year old female.. I did hormone testing as well if it matters.  Done first thing  in the morning on day 6 of my cycle (period was just ending that day):

FSH 5.5Luteinizing Hormone:  8.1Prolactin:  17.2

Just looking for insight.. I still think I am slightly hypothyroid.  Have an INCREDIBLY STRESSFUL LIFE..  Like a 20 on a scale of 1 to 10.

Explain me these thyroid results: Free T4: 10.0 pmol/L (10.0-24.0) TSH: 0.73 mU/L (0.3-5.0) FT3: 5.7 pmol/ L (2.5-5.5)H What is wrong with me? Thanks
