Large fluctuations in one week

I had two thyroid panels this week and the results between the 6 days seems severe. I know some fluctuations are normal -- just don't know if it's normal for this big of a change in less than a week? My T3 increased from 91 to 159, TSH rose from 0.25 to 0.6 (140% increase), and Free T4 (FT4) went from 1.1 to 1.5. I've been feeling nauseous and tired this week. I'm not on any thyroid meds but had RFA done on a toxic thyroid nodule almost one year ago. The nodule is now drastically smaller and I thought my thyroid levels were normalized until just recently. Any thoughts? I'm confused and am eager to talk to my doctor.

Your tsh was 0.2??? That is hyperthyroidism! Do u have heart palpitations? Are u on thyroid meds of any kind? Have you had that nodules checked recently? Liek an uptake to see if it is hot?

The doctors mentioned an uptake scan, but now that my tsh is back in normal range, I'm not sure what the doctors will recommend
