hi I have been treated for thyroid cancer with total thyroidectomy last January and rai in april.I was given a stimulated tg level of 1.2
I have just had tg level done and I have been given 2 readings tg level of .1 and 2.2 and thyroglobulin antibody 23.3 and 24.3 .
I would be grateful if you could explain what this means. Is it indicative of persistant/recurrent cancer

Hi, dear
I have gone through your question. I can understand your concern.
You have history of thyroid cancer and treated with total thyroidectomy. So no need to worry about thyroglobulin level. Thyroglobulin level does not suggest recurrence of your cancer. You should go for ultrasound neck once to rule out any growth. No need to worry about cancer from your result. Just be relaxed.
Hope I have answered your question, if you have doubt then I will be happy to answer. Thanks for using health care magic. Wish you a very good health.
