Is There Anything To Worry After Finding T6 Level As 3.5?
I was just informed that my T6 level was at 3.5 and that it may be of some concern. For many years I have asked various doctors to look into my thyroid function, but am always told it is low but is barely within the normal range and should not be concerned. Should I be concerned now? The tests were ran by a neurologist because of these horrific headaches I have daily.

I think it is T3 and not T6 levels . If so you are on lower side if the normal not low. So treatment is not needed
Let it be clear that thyroid is not going to cause you headache. Cause of headache is many factors a detail history is required to diagnose fr headache.
Neurologist is right person fr tgat. So follow his orders.
Kindly avoid braccoli, cabbage as this would lower yr thyroid levels.
Keep checking fr thyroid levels every 6 mths
Right now no need fr treatment
