Various: You have various problems. Your thyroid level is low and needs to be treated with brand name T4 replacement. The nodules depend upon what they look like on ultrasound and other thyroid blood tests. May beed biopsy. Calcium is normal. Don't know the normals for PTH in pmol/l-also varies with type of PTH assay. Talk w/your doctor.

Male. Suffer from Hashimoto's. TSH is normal, no nodules on the thyroid but very vascularised (irritated), TPO is high 535 UI/mL. I'm concerned about Calcitonin level which is high 12.04 pg/mL. Is cancer possible?
