My thyroid function TSH, Free T4, and Total 3T came back low as well as below normal parathyroid hormone, an ultrasound was ordered and now there are 5 nodules, 3 of which completely consume the left thyroid, trachea stenosis (very uncomfortable). Isthmus nodule has grown in diameter to 8mm. In addition my protein remains below normal, vitamin D is way below normal, below normal kidney function and I have advanced bone degeneration. (I am 43 and very active) I finally got in to see an endo who said among other surprising things 'repeat ultrasound in 8-12 months we'll see what grows', 'below normal parathyroid levels are incidental', 'riding horses as 43 doesn't fell the same as at 23' I left his office with absolutely no treatment, no answers, no plan...but hey...he did get a copay...at least one of us was happy.
This is a benign biopsy result. Would see an endo for f/u on the nodule (usually 6 month ultrasound unless symptoms increase in interim)
