I am also curious to read... 2008 a surgeon dr. was seeing about a bowel issue for first time said; do you have a goiter? By the time I realized what that was he had his hand on my neck and said yes you do...then we went on to discuss a possible colonoscopy.
His report of my visit to my family dr did not mention the goiter. A month later I went to GP as had heard new Gastro in town and asked if I could have him do colonoscopy instead of surgeon.. and during conversation I said to him: oh the other dr said I have a goiter. My GP felt my neck.. oh I DONT feel anything he said! Well I said, why did he say I did?
Anyway GP sent me for ultrasound and yes goitre on R. thyroid and quite large.
Long story short, had the goiter and right thyroid removed. 2.5 hour operation 2 nights in hospital, and have since been on daily Synthroid.
Left thyroid has small nodules in and I go every year for ultrasound since 2009 and they are just leaving them for now as small. Should they get bigger I am to be referred to an ENT.
Having no family dr for past 2 years, I suppose I am now supposed to keep track of this problem? We have 2 ENTs where Ilive and one is a year wait it not urgent and the other 2 years! (Northern Ontario)

Best of luck and anxious to hear your results.. also, I find they do the one thyroid blood test yearly, whereas there are several blood tests they can and I feel should do - maybe ask for them all, I might. 🙂

I had my endo appointment and she told me the nodule was benign, (which I already knew from the hospital). Basically, I was took she would look at it again in January. Nothing can be done, just have to live with it or remove the thyroid. I asked the dr. what she would do if she were me. She said she would try to keep my thyroid. She would not give me any thyroid medicine because she said it can cause problems with the heart. I am going to try to go gluten free to see if that will help reduce the size of the nodule. Sometimes I can't feel it, but sometimes I feel like something is stuck in my throat. Just wish I could feel fine and start growing my hair again. I don't know what else to do.
