Here's a link that might help you: http://www.thyroid.org/patients/patient_brochures/goiter.html
A goiter is the term for an overall enlarged thyroid. There are several causes and one is a nodule. So when you say, "...there are more than one…," I think you might be talking about more than one nodule. These might be contributing to your thyroid enlargement - or goiter.
If you scroll down on the ‘What causes a goiter?’ section you’ll see a paragraph with a link to a page about nodules.
Back on the following page, you can enter search terms and get info on thyroid surgeries: http://www.thyroid.org/search.php
Good luck.
