In most cases the "cervical glands" are not related to the thyroid. A goiter is a thyroid problem and I would think such a history should prompt more frequent (ie yearly) screening for thyroid dysfunction. In your case, an ultrasound may be interesting if done/read by someone familiar with changes seen in autoimmune thyroid disease -- these changes may be seen before there is a detectable increase in thyroid antibodies. The goiter of pregnancy has been described for centuries - it seems to be more common in antibody positive women. I presume you live in part of the world that isn't iodine deficient -- this is also a common problem causing goiter worldwide but not in North America.
so your saying it is possible to have a goiter without testing possitive for antibodies?What about thyroid symptoms -can you have them aso without tesing possitive?
yes, goiter without antibodies is common. Symptoms with normal thyroid function is also common - as these symptoms are not specific to the thyroid and can have other causes.
