Hi there

I've had my nodules since october last year just kind of sprung up from nothing andthe dominant one has grown to be 3 cm! i don't have an under or over active thyroid, but i do have TPO antibodies and nodules with suspicious follicular cells.so having it removed.
what about you? are you having any treatment?

I have just been diagnosed with goiter and currently have swollen glands.  If you find anything out about it, please post!  Hope you are better soon.  How long have you had the goiter?  Did the doctor diagnose you with any particular thyroid problem?
