TSH blood test
Hello, I just got a call from my Dr.s asst. to tell me that my TSH was .6 on a blood test that they did last week. I had Follicular/Pap. cancer and my thyroid was removed back in 04.
The Dr. wants me to come in and have the Thyrigen shots (spl.?) and then a body scan & ultrasound. I am also going through menopause (I'm 48). Could this have any effect on my TSH levels? I am scared that the cancer has spread.

The Menopause plays a big part is hormones being unstable.
I wouldnt panic until you get the full story.
