Brief Answer:
CHECK Ft4

Detailed Answer:
Good day.
Noted your concern.
Yes at 2 months that TSH was very normal.(normal for that age). However Total T4 and Total T3 are high. please get a Free T4 (FT4) and Free T3 (Ft3) done. This will give more clarity. If Ft3 and FT4 elevated, then we have to consider Thyroid hormone resistance as a cause. Does your child have any symptoms?
regards XXXXXXX
