Brief Answer:
TSH normal, better to do a Free T4 as well.

Detailed Answer:
Good day,
Noted your question,
TSH of 1.33 is absolutely normal. Not to worry about it. However, I must say that, TSH is a screening test and you may also need to test Free t4 for completing the thyroid hormone profile. But your TSH seems perfect now. Please also get a Free T4 done.
