#1. Here is a link about your adenoma, I have 11 on my gland: http://www.thedoctorsdoctor.com/diseases/thyroid_follicular_adenoma.htm
Follicular adenomas are non cancerous.
#2 Here is a link about the cervical lympadenopathy:
http://www.aafp.org/afp/2002/1201/p2103.html
They are rarely cancerous and you would exhibit other signs in your blood tests that would suggest cancer.
#3 A FNAC Correlation is a "Fine Needle Aspiration with Correlation", the correlation is usually done with an ultrasound. There does not appear from the order to be a sample taken during the aspiration, so the Doc does NOT suspect cancer in my layman's opinion. Fine needle aspirations are no fun, I have had 4 of them, but they are not open surgery and are not very risky to your general health. This appears to be a perfect sound approach to analyzing the adenoma.
By the way, thryoid cancer is one of the most curable and least likely to spread cancer's you can get. I believe the stats are that there is a 99% chance of living 10 years or more after diagnosis. There are stats for this on my website.

From these findings, you have follicular cancer. Why didn't your doctor tell you that? You MUST have the thyroid removed. If the cancer has gone to your lymph nodes, you must also take a radioactive pill. Thyroid cancer is a slow grower, yet can spread, usually to the lungs and bone.
I had my thyroid removed last year. I wish you lots of luck.
Here's a tidbit I found:
"Follicular adenoma is a benign encapsulated tumor. It is a relatively common
neoplasm and nearly always solitary and generally occurring in an otherwise normal
gland. They are seen most often in middle aged women. Patients with follicular
adenomas are generally euthyroid and consult a physician because of a painless lump."
Here's the site the above came from: http://ckm.osu.edu/sitetool/sites/otolaryngologypublic/documents/atlas/ThyroidFollicularAdenoma2.pdf
The following is from the site posted by ThyroidHunter above regarding the cervical lympadenopathy.
"The prevalence of malignancy is thought to be quite low among all patients with lymphadenopathy. Few studies define the prospective risk of malignancy with adenopathy, but three case series support the suggestion that the risk is very low."
I agree that it does not sound like the doctor suspects cancer; however, in the event that it is cancer, ThyroidHunter is correct - thyroid cancer is one of the most curable cancers there is.
