Should thyroid be removed? Should I get 2nd opinion? Can't wait another 6 months.

Thyroid, May 2015 - R. Lobe 4.8 x 2.6 x 2cm L. Lobe 4.3 x 2.1 x 1.5cm Isthmus 7.8mm 3 nodules (largest) 0.9 x 0.8 x 0.5cm solid

Thyroid, Aug 2018 - R. Lobe 6.3 x 2.1 x 2.4cm L. Lobe 6.2 x 1.8 x 2.2 isthmus 6mm Mulitiple nodules (largest) 1.2 x 0.7 x 1.1cm

Lump sensation, coughing/clearing throat all day, can't eat certain foods, pressure all the time. I have been on meds since I was 14 so why the growth. Grandmother had thyroid removed many years ago. Caner of all kinds run on both sides of my family.
