Hey, I just got my THS test results and it shows my thyroid level is at 0.06. Is that normal? I'm kind of worried because I'm pregnant and wondering if this level can affect my pregnancy.

My blood calcium levels are high at 12.5 and urine tests also show excess calcium. The sestamibi scan points to the lower right lobe being affected. I'm worried about the surgery will it be done under general or local anesthesia? How long does the procedure usually take and what's the typical hospital stay? Also, which surgical method works best for this condition?
