They probably found this after they sent your rt lobe of thyroid off to pathology. Thyroid cancer is one of the easiest cancers to cure, so try not to get worried. I know easier said than done.
You should start a new post labeled thyroid cancer with your information. We have a lot of members here who have dealt with thyroid cancer.
