Hyperthyroidism can mask underlying kidney failure by increasing renal blood

values have gone up while he's been on thyroid meds, then radioiodine tx
would not be a good choice.

Best of luck,

I'm a little leery about the radiation and my wife being pregnant. I'll
ask the doctor if there's any risk...
