T3, Total: 1.7 (Range: 0.9-1.8)
Free T4: 0.95 (Range: 0.54-1.30)
TSH: 4.32 (Range: 0.32-4.00)

My TSH prior to this was 5.07

I was diagnosed with subclinical hypothyroidism, and put on 200mcg levothyroxine. Yesterday, I was told that I was overmedicated and to stop taking it until my next appt (Tues).

Can anyone shed a little more light on these lab results?

The low FT4 and the high TSH does in fact a need for thyroxine replacement but not necessarily 200 mcgs.. I am so glad you are discontinuing until you see the doctor.

Thank goodness!

You're still slightly hypothyroid -- are you seeing your PCP for this? You might ask for a referral to an endocrinologist if they are putting you on 200 mcg of levothyroxine for a TSH of 5.07.
