I am a breast cancer survivor, diagnosed in 2/07. I recently had a CT Scan to look at 2 palpable nodes near my collarbone. I was told they were "reactive lymph nodes" and not worry. However, they found "at least 4 predominately hypoechoic to anechoic cystic foci" on the thyroid. My oncologist is referring me to an endocrinologist even though he is telling me there is nothing to worry about.
I know you cannot make a diagnosis by reading a US report, but are the words "hypoechoic, 'punctate calcification', ' echogenic area, and small solid nodule with doppler flow" cause for concern??
My mother has CLL also and I am worrying I may have some type of lymphoma or that the BC has mestatsized. Have you ever seen anyone with a history like mine, with words like these on their US report who recieved GOOD news? My appointment is next week.. its going to be a long weekend.
