Your symtoms that you are describing as hypo could be from PCOS. With your TSH at 0.247, it is unlikely that you are experiencing these symptoms from hypothyroidism.

It is very possible that you have 2 small nodules on your thyroid, many people have nodules and less than 10% of those nodules are cancerous. Usually they are nothing to worry about. But sometimes they can be hot or cold, meaning they produce way too much thyroid hormone or none at all. From what you said, your nodules did not appear on the scan?

When you had your uptake scan, did a radiologist look at your scan and/or the ENT or just your GP? The reason I ask is because even though GPs are awesome at their jobs they sometimes do not pick up on small things that radiologists would.
