    Sounds like subclinical hyperthyroidism. Have you had any antibodies tests done or any scans for nodules?

    If you have had this for 3 years, how have you been treated?  Your Free T3 and T4 are in the high normal range and your TSH value is extremely low indicating hyperthyroidism.  Even if you are not on carbimazole, you can improve a lot by adding supplements.  I would get tested for deficiencies in Carnitine, vitamin D and magnesium to start and if deficient add these supplements.
