I hear different things on this. My postpartum labs showed hyperthyroid behavior, so we did the antibodies test and it came back negative. They then did an ultrasound and they said that they could see that I had Graves' from that.
Now, after having another pregnancy and postpartum labs, I'm showing as hypo instead of hyper - again antibodies test came back negative for that too.
I hear that some people say you can see Grave's on an ultrasound - others say that is not a definitive method of diagnosing a patient, can anyone help me with this?
