Thyroid Scan and Uptake
| Wed, 12-29-2004 - 4:45pm |
Hello All,
I have a question. Recently my doctor had me take a Thyroid Ultrasound along with some blood tests. The blood tests came back normal as far as my TSH levels. He did say I have two Thyroid Nodules that we need to check out after he received the Ultrasound. I then went to take a Thyroid Scan and Uptake. The results are as follows
Findings: 24 hour uptake is 16%
Thyroid scan shows no evidence of mass or nodularity. There is no evidence of increased or decreased radionuclide activity.
Impression:Unremarkable thyroid scan with 24 hour uptake at 16%
I have an appointment with my doctor in 2 weeks. I'm a little anxious. Does this mean no nodules were found?
Thanks,
Greg

Good luck!
Carole
Greg,
I am not sure what that means.
I was having a swallowing problem which has now been diagnosed as Gerd. I suspect
he is checking out the Nodules as a precaution..

Oh ok...
