Dear SAmir Fouad Aziz MD, Thank you so much for your response, I really appreciate it. This was my second blood test for TSH, a week after the first test. It has come at 0.01 both times. I cannot find any information on the internet about low TSH and normal free thyroxin. I can only find the opposite. I have tried to research this with no luck =-(

Thank You!
