Thyroid cancer?: Your question is hard to understand. A hurthle cell carcinoma of the thyroid is serious and needs attention (if that is what you have). Typical treatment is surgery, radioactive iodine, and then follow up with ultrasound, thyroglob levels, scans, but hurthle does not always take up rai. Please see your endocrinologist.

Adenoma = benign: An adenoma, including a hürthle cell adenoma, is a benign tumor of the thyroid gland. Surgery is curative. I'm not sure why you are having thyroglobulin (tg) measurements done, but as long as you TSH is staying in range (and 0.8 is in range), you should not any reason to worry about your thyroid.
