THYROID NODUAL FOUND PLEASE HELP!!
Posted , 4 users are following.
Hello, I have been scanned and had been said that I have cysts and a hard nodual on my thyroid said it was small but did not say how small. I have to say I am extremely scared reading up on things on Google and am sending my self into a serious state of depression.
I am 32 year old male I have 4 children and all I seem to think about is leaving them and it's killing me. I went to the doctors for a scan on my lump on my side and also because I felf like a pinch on my throat, as mentioned the scan can up with multiple cysts but only found out I had a solid nodual when I went to the doctors something I was not told in the scan. I have my blood tests results tomorrow to test the function and also at 5pl I have the scan at hospital and possible fna
Can anyone tell me the facts and what this means for my future as I keep thinking the worst what ifs
Thanks
Sean

i had a very similar situation 4 years ago with a growth on my thyroid that was eventually starting to choke me. I felt fine in my self with no adverse symptoms but with an ever growing collar size that needed sorting. After numerous consultations and opinions and ultrasound scans i had no alternative but to have the thyroid removed completely. I spent 5 days in hospital and a few weeks recovering and have been living a very active and normal life since. I take thyroxine daily and simply ensure that i have a blood test every few months to ensure that my medication is doing its job. One lesson i learned was to do as much research as you can since during my time i have found that your normal gp is not so knowledgeable about some of the symptoms of thyroid disorder and tends to treat the symtoms rather than the cause. Your diet and your lifestyle will have an impact on your bllod results so just try to understand what the tsh, t3 and T4 levels mean. Your body will require a specific dose or supplement of thyroxine that is right for you.
One thing is for sure, if you need surgery, dont leave it too late as it is a very complicated process around the neck with lots of associated risks involved.
regards,
kevin
