Normal scan?

[Annasien]

Had scan on my thyroid, radiologist said it seems normal , I was very surprised as my antibodies not budge since I have been diagnosed last year July

All the time more then limit more then 1000 for tpo and tbg more than 600 , is it possible to have normal scan now as before wasn't?

I cannot answer your question but antibodies can be reduced by going gluten-free.

Others who have the answer will responds

Thanks 🙏 I am gluten free on 100 levothroxine , maybe cured😳 , will check my bloods I guess that will be the indicator

Thank you for the reply

Annasien,

It is possible to have high antibodies and normal looking thyroid gland. It simply means that Hashimoto's has not yet damaged the thyroid gland.

Thank you , I haven't explained properly, apologies! , my previous scan shown sponge like/ damaged was inflamed and porous , this one although not fully confirmed appears ok so that's I am a bit surprised and not sure 🤔

Thank you for your answer

Annasien,

I'd make sure that both scans are yours. Thyroid damage usually becomes worse not better.
