Hi, dear
I have gone through your question. I can understand your concern.

You have abnormal T3 and Swollen leg. Please send me your T3, T4, TSH and thyroid antibodies report. Hypothyroidism can leads to swollen leg. So if you have hypothyroidism then it can be a possibility. If you don't have hypothyroidism then we should search for other cause.

So please send me your reports so that I can help you further.

Hope I have answered your question. If you have any doubts then feel free to ask me. I will be happy to answer.
Thanks for using health care magic. Wish you a very good health.
