@lovecats2025, I joined your 3 questions about the diagnostic process into one discussion here:
- Sonogram score TR5 & 7 points and biopsy update: What's next? https://connect.mayoclinic.org/discussion/tr5-7-points/

I did this to help people follow your journey with diagnosis. I'm glad to hear that you will see the endocrinologist in less than 2 weeks. Now is a good time to gather your questions. I'm sure your mind is reeling. It might be helpful to have pen and paper (or your phone) nearby to jot down questions for the endocrinologist as they pop into your head so they don't go round and round in your mind.

To help you get started, scroll down almost to the bottom of this Mayo information to the section called "Preparing for your appointment" https://www.mayoclinic.org/diseases-conditions/thyroid-cancer/diagnosis-treatment/drc-20354167
There you will find questions to ask and more.

Lovecats: How are you holding up during this waiting period? It's not easy, I know.
