So been having strange symptoms recently. My thyroid values came back good besides Thyroglobulin antibodies which were high. The other antibodies were normal though. Also good TSH, T3, T4, reverse T3 etc..

so I got an ultrasound on my thyroid just received a vague response from my primary saying theres some things we need to discuss and to schedule another appointment,.


here are the findings:

"Right lobe measures 6.2 x 2.0 x 2.0 cm . Left lobe measures 5.3 x 1.6 x 1.4 cm. No thyroid nodules or calcifications."

Any thoughts on what might be going on? my follow up is on the 10th
 
im confused who sad u have a goitre if results came back normal?

great news about no nodules as prob #1 concern with elevated antibodies esp with normal T4 is cancer.

prob just wants the $$ and say, "we will keep an eye on your thyroid as the one side may be growing and let me know if XYZ symptoms come"..

im not an expert, never had thyroid problems.

good luck man!
 
Its funny that you mention that. I dont have that issue, but I have been reading a book on iodine. turns out most people are deficient in iodine and it is never brought up so maybe check into it.
