No need to change meds.

Detailed Answer:
Hi,
Thanks for asking.
I am Dr. Jyothi BL and I will be answering your query.

Based on your query, my opinion is as follows:

1. T4 is only mildly elevated. It has least significance amongst the thyroid profile.

2. If T3 and TSH are within normal range, no need to change in meds. Continue the same.

Hope it helps.
