You had a nuclear thyroid uptake scan today and have a newborn infant 8 weeks old can you be around him hold him can you hurt him from being radioactive would it be best to stay away how long?
You should stay away from all children as a precaution. You will be excreting the radioactivity through your skin's pores (sweating), breastmilk, urine, and feces. As a rule you should stay at least 3-5 feet away from your child for 1 week to be safe. The less exposure the better because the radioactivity damages rapidly producing cells. Your baby is growing rapidly (his first growth spurt) til the age of 2 and therefore has a lot of rapidly producing cells to be damaged.
Does a cold nodule in the thyroid mean cancer?
If an endocrinologist asks you to undergo a thyroid uptake scan, you will have to take a small amount of radioactive isotope that will get absorbed by the thyroid gland. Within 24 hours of swallowing the radioactive isotope, pictures will be taken of your thyroid. This test helps to determine if a thyroid nodule is an active part of the thyroid tissue or not. When the nodule comes back as 'cold' this means that it didn't absorb as much of the radioactive isotope; as it would be expected by tissue that is an active part of the thyroid gland. A 'cold' nodule doesn't necessarily mean that you have cancer. It just means that your doctor might want to undergo further testing to determine if there is a need to monitor the nodule or surgically remove it.
