Hi all, I am being checked for "activity" in the thyroid as I have a lump there. I have underactive, has been like that for 25 years. My thyroglobulin test has come back at 6.6 - is there a way of knowing what that actually means? I have hospital appointment booked. But I like to prepare myself - so any info on the result would help. Thank you

Not without a reference range. And is it anti-thyroglobulin antibodies that were tested or thyroglobulin?

As you are diagnosed with an underactive thyroid, are you on any thyroid hormone replacement?
