Thyroglobulin is "normal"

My doctor is on vacation.  I called the U of Iowa today to ask for the blood work results of my stimulated Thyroglobulin (cancer marker).  They would not give me the numbers over the phone but said a letter is in the mail with details and that the results are "normal."  This is REALLY ANNOYING!  I like details.  I want to know exactly what value the Thyroglobulin is so I can see if it's creeping upward, staying the same, etc.  So, another exercise in patience.  When I get the values, I'll update the blog.  Until then, I pray everyone is doing well!  Happy Spring!
