back neck hyperthyroidism

[vanny528]

when it is at the neck what does that means.
also when you do a iodine test and you are 70%hyperthyroid what does it mean?
if i feel very weak and nervy what does it mean.

[Mark Lupo, M.D.]

An increased uptake of 70% usually is hyperthyroidism due to Graves -- would test blood for thyroid function and discuss with your doctor.  Not sure what you mean by "at the neck" except that's where the thyroid is....

I would think since you have the iodine tests results you should go for an actual TSH T3 and T4 test with a doctor and be evaluated for hyperthyroidism
