what does this mean?

[Guest guest]

I have my doc appt tomorrow.

Here is what is know:

In 1999 I was losing some weight (had stopped taking prednisone)... I

had some blood tests:

TSH was 1.82 (the expect range was 0.35 to 7.00) - doc said normal.

-------------------------------------------

Last week, after seeing a doc who noticed I had a goiter, i got more

tests:

thyroxine 13.6 (5.5-11.0 expected)

thyroid uptake 49.3 (23.5 to 40.6 expected range)

free thyroxine index 22.3 (4.5 -10.6 expected range)

TSH 3rd generation <0.003 (expected range 0.465-4.680)

------

Also this was the report:

both left and right lob3s of thyroid appear enlarged showing increased

by homgeneous uptake. no hot or cold nodules. 24 hour uptake is

elevated measuring 56.4percent

What does this mean?
