    Thyroid

    Praying for excellent news with regard to your thyroid issues.

     

    Big hugs, Nancy

     

    I was just reading that

    I was just reading that thyroid nodules are extremely common and that 90 percent of them are benign. The article said that after a certain age about 50 percent of people develop one or more. So I’m looking at the stats as a good sign and chances are you’re in the 90 percent. Still, I’m sure you’re anxious about getting the biopsy done so you stop worrying about it. Let’s hope they schedule it soon so you can put this behind you as well!

    Hi Andi,
    You hit the nail on

    Hi Andi,

    You hit the nail on the head! I just want this done, so I know what is going on and can put this behind me! I do feel crappy, but sure that it is all tied together. I am sure it isn't too bad, whatever it is.

    Thanks for caring enough to actually go and read about it. Very sweet of you.

    Hugs

    Jojo

    I think feeling crappy is

    I think feeling crappy is pretty much affected by your anxiety and wishing to get this over with and diagnosed. I really do think it's the 90 percent and benign but having it settled once and for all will be a huge relief, I'm sure.
