I was diagnosed with thyroid cancer 18 mos ago. Had surgery and radioactive iodine and that went well. My last checkup two days ago revealed a growth about .9 centimeters in my lymph node in my neck. I had Huerthle cell cancer which I know is aggressive. I'm scared.

Hi, @mybadthyroid - I wanted to add my welcome to Mayo Clinic Connect. Glad you've connected with @alpaca and @skoshi. I also wanted to invite some of the other members in this conversation to comment on your recent Hurthle cell cancer diagnosis with the growth in the lymph node discovered in your neck, and the fact that you are feeling scared right now. Please meet @karenjf @merpreb @sepdvm @cpaulestep @jshdma.

@mybadthyroid - what is the next step for your treatment at this point?
