Thank You. I Have Thyroid Cancer. I've Had My Thyroid

Thank you. I have Thyroid Cancer. I've had my thyroid and isthmus removed and also had 99 milicuries of I 131. It has been 3 years since surgery. My blood test showed an overly suppressed thyroid, the numbers are .06 and they want them .01. The nurse couldn't exactly tell me would the cancer come back or any other symptoms that might occur. I am now on 175mcg of synthriod a day for 6 days a week . They cut me back by 87mcg on the seventh day. Can you please help me to understand these numbers and what possible symptoms I might be experiencing. Thank you once again, Bonnie Sales
