I had a total thyroidectomy surgery due to papillary thyroid carcinoma. It has now been almost 9 years. My recent test results are thyroglobulin less than 0.040 ng/ml, TgAB less than 10 IU/ml, free T4 20.82 pmol/L, and TSH 3.60. Is my report okay? I am currently taking 125 mcg Thyronorm. Do I need to increase the dose? Is my TSH high currently?

Tg level is appropriate post surgery. TSH of 3.6 is borderline high for a post thyroidectomy patient. Please take a repeat TSH and Free T4 to fine tune dosage.

Question

I am on the fourth day of my period, but I am still feeling nauseous. I took a home pregnancy test, which was negative. I am experiencing extreme restlessness, high stress, and anxiety, and I am unable to sleep properly. Occasionally, I get chills. My mind keeps racing with unrealistic thoughts that I know cannot happen, but I cannot control them.

Question

Lab report 22 Oct shows T3 is 1.99, T4 is 10.75, and TSH is 5.74. Can we proceed for pregnancy or do we need to cure thyroid first before pregnancy? Please prescribe medication. Is any other test necessary before pregnancy?

Question

Hi, I am 9 weeks pregnant. My recent report shows Thyroid Stimulating Hormone (TSH ULTRA) at 4.69 microIU/ml. Is this a serious issue? Do I have thyroid problems? Please advise.
