Study Summary

The optimal timing to measure thyroglobulin(Tg) after thyroidectomy is unknown in patients with thyroid cancer. The ATA and NCCN guidelines are not specific on optimal timing of Tg levels in post-op state and suggest anywhere between 2-12 weeks. Hypothesis - Post -op Tg nadirs at 6-8 weeks . Primary Objective -Determine optimal timing of post thyroidectomy Tg nadir, so to determine the most accurate time to check post operatively. Secondary Outcome - Determine factors that will affect Tg levels post operatively. All adults age 19 and above already planning to undergo near total /total thyroidectomy for reasons unrelated to the study. Measure Tg , Tg Ab and TSH pre-op, post op ---\> 7-14 days, 4 wk, 6 wk, and 3 month in patients with pathology confirmed benign disease. Measure Tg , Tg Ab , TSH pre-op, post op ---\> 7-14 days, 4 wk, 6 wk, 3 month, 6 month, and 12 month in patients with thyroid cancer.

Primary Outcome

Determine optimal timing of post thyroidectomy thyroglobulin (Tg) nadir, so to determine the most accurate time to check post operatively.
