Thyroid help

[Rissole]

I have just had an ultrasound of my thyroid that was notified because of a goiter. My bloods have come back as normal but the ultrasound said the following.solid nodule on the isthmus, minor hyperaemia. Right lobe normal size but two noduels, dominant one 23x15x17 mm, solid, internal vascularity and calcifications, minor hyperaemia. Left lobe enlarged with multiple nodules largest in upper pole isoechoic, solid with internal vascularity and calcificatinos and hyperaemia.
Anyone tell me if this sounds bad or if I shouldn't worry. Charissa

My lymph nodes are normal, well I assume no lymphadenathopathy, means they are. They are microcalcifications in both of the the noduels on both lobes. I have now booked in for a fine needle biopsy in the next couple,of days. Hopefully it will work out okay!

You have multinodular goiter with calcified nodules containing blood vessels.
Such type of goiter is commonly found among the middle aged people living in iodine deficient area, however often more investigation is need to rule out malignancy
Hyperemia is the increase of blood flow.
When such feature is found in the thyroid nodule the biopsy required to evaluate it (benign tumor vs cancer) You will most likely have biopsy of dominant nodule
Calcification by itself is nor indicative of cancer; microcalcification increase odds of cancer to 25% (this is not specified on your report).
the condition of lymph nodes is also important (not specified as well; abnormal nodes increase likehood of cancer ).
