My TSH 0.10, T4 1.0, T3 98, Cholesterol is 145 mg. Im 56 female. I my be low, but I believe it's just a 'low normal'. No symtoms at all..... and she wanted to give me a pill to kill my thyroid!! Is this right?
A low TSH indicates HYPERthyroidism. For your other results, you need to post the ranges for normal for the lab that did your tests as they vary from lab to lab. While I personally do not believe in the "kill your thyroid" treatment, you do have to take action to normalize your thyroid because if you do not, you run the risk of having a "thyroid storm" which is serious. Many, if not most docs will want to go that route of killing your thyroid because that is how they are trained. Usually, however, they try a course of thyroid hormone blocking drugs first and if that fails, then they resort to more serious treatments. I told lmy Endocrinologist right from the get go that I would not do RAI or thyroid surgery and I stuck to my guns when they kept pushing for it. On the thyroid hormone blocking drug Methimazole, my Free T3 and Free T4 normalized right away but my TSH remained at less than 0.001 for 2 years and then I added supplements to my medical treatment after reading a research paper on the benefits of hyperthyroid patients taking 3,000 to 4,000 mg of Regular L-Carnitine. I also was deficient in Vitamin D and low in Magnesium so I added 1,000 to 5,000 mg of vitamin D and 200 mg of Magnesium. All my results are in the normal range now and I take a very low dose of Methimazole 2.5 mg (half of a tiny pill) 4 days a week now. I feel good and there is no reason to "kill my thyroid". Others have gone the totally naturopathic route by taking Bugleweed, Motherwort and Melissa and were able to normalize their results with that. Your doc will not know anything about supplements. That is not in their training. You can tell your doc you are not willing to "kill your thyroid" and ask him or her if you are a candidate for medication.
Thank you SO much for taking your time to respond. I dont take anything in regards to vitimins, etc. Im heading down to the health store now. 
I will be talking to my doctor more directly, as this happened so fast, I havent had a chance to comprehend it or study about it.
Thank you again!

Sorry was thinking I was talking to danr
Just wanted to thank Linda for suggesting magnesium. It has really helped with my Graves! I'm ready to try L-Carnitine, but was wondering what was meant by "Regular"?
There are different types of Carnitine. There is Regular L-Carnitine, which is what the research paper was on. It was used with hyperthyroid patients. Then there is Acetyl-L-Carnitine. This is really useful if your TSH is like 0 but it also comes with a word of caution because I have seen people on these Boards take it and not monitor it and very quickly they went very hypo. That doesn't happen with the Regular L-Carnitine. I have taken both. The Regular L-Carnitine began to raise my TSH but the Acetyl just shot it right up in abour 3 weeks. My Endo was shocked! I would advise most people to try the Regular and save the Acetyl until much later. The Regular also helps with muscle wasting. When you are running hyper, you lose a lot of amino acids like Carnitine, vitamin D etc from your muscles through urination. Once you are stable, you will keep these essential vitamins and minerals and feel better.
Thank you so much, Linda. You are always so eager to help us. I hope you know we appreciate you sharing your knowledge!
