Should I be seen and followed by an Endocrinologist?

I had a incidental finding of a 9mm nodule on my right thryroid a year ago on a cervical MRI.  All other cervical MRI's never showed anything.  Old primary tested TSH and it was normal.  Fast forward a year and New primary ordered ultrasound and TSH testing(normal).  Ultrasound findings were 3 nodules on my right thyroid described as complex and mildly hypervascular most dominant now measuring 1.2 cm.  Also, a 0.5 cm solid nodule was on my left upper pole.  New primary wants to repeat ultrasound in 6 months and check for changes.  It seems to be such a drastic change in one year already.

Hi,

How are you doing?  Did you seek a 2nd opinion?  It can't hurt at all to get another opinion as you wait to see if you will continue with the current gameplan of 6 mos to repeat.
