Went to the ENT Dr to get results of test that I have had done ! Just as I thought, I have a nodule measuring over an inch on the right side of my thyroid- which is quite sizeable! Dr wanted to schedule a Fine needle aspiration, to see if there are cancer cells or not. If there is or not, the tumor has to be removed!
Now I don't want to have this surgery done at a local hospital. I have a dr's name from my dentist's wife- who had the same problem. So I have a call in for a consult, waiting for for the scheduling secretary to call back with a date! MAN--- I am really pissed off about this! but I know it has to be done- as the swallowing is getting more difficult! urghhhhhh!
Just thought I would let you guys know, as Hugs wanted me to tell her as soon as I knew anything! Thank it my stinky news today. Have not told my DD's yet- don't know as tho I should- this late in thier pregnancies! my poor brain is in high gear- poor DH does'nt know what to say- he just is sitting there staring at me- that is getting on my last nerve too--plus I have to be on this stupid Prednisone too! urghhhh!


Sorry to hear this hon.
Maybe try to get it done asap ..
As for telling your DD's .. maybe after the fact?
Will keep those loving thoughts & prayers for you & everyone else hon :)

Hi Pat, thanks for the kind words! I wish I could have it done before the babes come along---BUT, I am having a consult in at a big Boston Hospital-- Mass General Hosp- I have an appt for July 5th -- then I'm sure they will want schedule thier own test, which will take time & then to schedule surgery- that will another wait in time---In the meantime I will be working myself to a frazzle- to keep myself busy--- that is how I deal- keep busy & live one day at a time ! Since I have mentioned this to people- many, many people have had this surgery plus had thier whole thryoid removed, my own cousin for one- she never told me ! Hope this is not an herditary (sp)? thingy!
Thanks again for the well wishes! Bunny
