I already know what the doctor is going to do next: thyroid biopsies. For the uninitiated, you basically get sewing needles jammed into your neck for the doc to jiggle around and get some nodule material to test.
I really hope it's not cancer! Though, even if it's not, I still have four thyroid nodules that'll need addressing.  |
I'm really sorry to hear about the nodules on your thyroid. Hope very much they are benign and that the biopsies can be done quickly so as to avoid waiting and worrying. Really hope everything goes as smoothly as possible
