Normal labs are also a cause for concern (along with the solid, complex nodule). Normal labs indicate you don't have thyroidosis. Please let us know how the biopsy goes.
Take care and *keep us posted*

Thank you, I am making an appt. for a biospy today. My thyroid blood test have been normal.
Thanks again....Linda
Get to an endocrinologist who specializes in thyroid conditions. Sometimes they are hard to find and can be booked months out so, meanwhile, get in to see an ENT.
A solid, complex nodule is suspicious. Has the nodule grown at all over the past few ultrasounds?
You need a needle biopsy and followup from a doctor who will NOT just blow you off.
Are your labs in normal range? Do you have high antibodies?
Heterogeneous means "not the same" - meaning that the tissue in your thyroid isn't consistent - which could be current (or past) thyroiditis but that would NOT be causing the solid nodule.
Get to someone who cares ASAP. Oh, then fire your internist.
Don't worry, we've all fired one or two idiots in white lab coats. :-)
