Oh thank you koh. I appreciate you taking the time to share. I just found out something in the blood they tested for that I don’t think I ever had that checked. Thyroglobulin is 490. According to the normal range, should be 1.6-59.9 ng/ml. So evidently my blood work is not normal like I thought. Guess we will see. If I get to choose my meds, I will try synthesis. Thanks so much again!

@reen88 … I was told that the thyroglobulin is a tumor marker. Once you have thyroidectomy or lobectomy the number should go down and then they monitor the level to help determine if there is growth.
I am still trying to get a better understanding about “thyroglobulin antibodies” which is also monitored. Mine has been going up but I don’t understand the relationship between the thyroglobulin and thyroglobulin antibodies.
