Scott, I don't know the specifics for T3/4 ratios. However, I do know that family docs often overlook the need for T3, when T4 levels are normal and TSH is within normal limits. Pdocs like to use T3 to augment ADs and other meds, because it heightens the effectivness of those meds.
I think a good eval of thyroid functioning would include TSH, Total T4, Total T3 at the very least, but there are other tests that are helpful, too. Abby might know them better.
