So about 2 week ago I started to randomly aspirate on my own saliva or liquids when I would swallow. I went to the Dr. and she said it felt that my thyroid was enlarged and that was a nodule or something on the right lobe. Well, I had my ultrasound today and the lady wouldn't tell me much until it was interpreted... she said my right thyroid measured 18 x 22 x 5 -- I swear she said mm (millimeters) but form my research they mainly measure in cm (centimeters) on ultrasound, so maybe I misheard. Some of my labs are back and they are as follows:
TSH 0.58 (very low end of normal)
FT4 1.29 (mid-range)
Total T4 5.9 (low)
Free T3 - pending
In addition, I have a ton of weird symptoms like night sweats, fatigue, increased appetite leading to weight gain, difficulty concentrating, etc.
Can anyone offer their opinion on what they think could be going on? All I can say is my right lobe looked much different than the left lobe and she seemed to indicate it was much larger than the left (she only gave me measurements of the right). My mind is scaring me that I have thyroid cancer because my doctor says all my labs are "fine" but I don't feel fine and I can't swallow 1/2 the time without inhaling my drinks or saliva into the "wrong pipe" and then choking and coughing like a crazy person....
Thanks in advance for any help.
