Hello, the ultrasound detected a malignant-looking nodule which measures approximately 23mm(AP) X 14mm(TR) on the left lobe of my thyroid (right lobe is clear) and several enlarged lymph nodes, mainly on the left side of the neck. They suspect it is thyroid cancer. I am 29 (with no history in my family) and as you can imagine I am in shock and extremely scared, having also mild/severe anxiety. I'm waiting for further test in the next week or 2 to confirm the cancer, it's type and stage.The thyroid lump was noticed by chance and I have no symptoms whatsoever
I am creating this topic first of all because I feel like doing so helps me a little but also to gather information from people that are or were going through the same process.
If you have already been through the process, how did it go? What can I expect from the next tests and treatment?
If you're undergoing the process now, what's your situation?
I hear that thyroid cancer is generally treatable, which made me feel a little better. I hope that will be the case for me as well.
Thanks everyone!
