A member asked:

3 weeks post total thyroidectomy and metanephrine study was mildly elevated. is this anthing to be worried about?

A doctor has provided 1 answer

norepinephrine elev: Stress induces elevation of all catecholamines and could have contributed seeing u just had thyroid resection my impression is your physcian is evaluating for men but this should only be suspected with medullary cancer of thyroid again mild elevations not significant generally.
