    I tested normal for TSH, WHILE I HAD a tumor from thyroid, around my vocal cords, down to chest. WHEN THEY did the neuclear dye test, my R thyroid was dead. I survived and did not have cancer, but it was classed a 5, and was growing as he tool it all, my doctor said it was ready to be cancer. He said to have scans every 6-12, months. Never had I been given one. From 1987- to know, no meds either. What would you thonk of that? I am 71 now, butiing weight, almost 80 + lbs. Doesn't look good. Thanks for any info. GOD BLESS

    My thyroid nodule is only 2 mm but I initially had the ultrasound because I had an intense pressure sensation when lying down and swollen lymph nodes in my neck. My dr says the tiny node couldn’t possibly give these symptoms… I wonder, though.

    Thank you for this. I had a CT scan and it just talked about my large thyroid. That was it. My oncologist had no comments to. I suggested that I get an ultrasound and he said yes we can do that. Ultrasound prove an excellent option for detecting, thyroid issues, and in my case, I am going to need to biopsies done on two nodules based on the TIRAD scores. The sad commentary is that when I asked oncologist to schedule an ultrasound he agreed, and he didn’t think that we see anything any different. So he was doing it to me and he didn’t think that there would be anything of value coming out of it, another thing worth mentioning, I had a thyroid panel blood test that looks normal.
