I'm a bit worried after looking at my test results, which show T3 as 107, T4 as 4.6, and TSH at 10.90. Do these numbers indicate any problem or potential thyroid issues? Could you shed some light on what this might mean for my health?

My 80-year-old grandma has toxic multinodular goiter her thyroid scan showed high uptake, T3 and T4 are elevated, and TSH is very low. The doctor suggested neomercazole for six weeks followed by surgery, but she's hesitant about the operation. She's had an enlarged thyroid for years with no swallowing or breathing issues, just some breathlessness when walking. Could medication alone manage her hyperthyroidism, or is surgery really necessary in her case? She's worried about going under the knife at her age. Also, should we start the neomercazole as prescribed?
