Hello everyone,
I hope you are all well.
I am new to this group, and quite nervous sending this message.
I was diagnosed with a rare thyroid cancer in 2014. I had a full thyroidectomy and radiotherapy.
All has been well, until 2023. A nodule was found in the right thyroid bed (where the cancer was initially found). I have had two biopsies, the first one there wasn't enough sample obtained. The second time 6 samples were obtained, this all done via a FNA.
I got the results yesterday 23.02.26, the results were thy3f (apparently inconclusive)... I don't know how to feel or what to expect next. I have to wait for 4 weeks until MDT has taken place.
Has anyone undergone or going through this? Have they had the same results? I just want answers and this has been going on since 2023....
Thank you for reading this long message
Hi Bluebell12,
I really would push to see if you can get a second opinion if you are not happy. I have done that regarding another matter.
I struggled swallowing food after my surgery. I struggled eating for months after my thyroidectomy.
I know consultants think they know best, but I agree they don't know pur bodies like we do.
I started experiencing anxiety after my thyroidectomy, I never had anxiety before the cancer.
You need to push the consultants girls, don't give up.
Sending you both lots of strength, positive energy and love..

I’m going for a barium swallow on Tuesday and have my surgery to remove half my thyroid on the 20th, so hopefully I will get some answers soon.
thank you x
I pray your surgery goes well and you get some answers hun xx
Hi Bluebell12,
That's the thing isn't it, we know our bodies. It's rather insulting.
Stand your ground and be confident in advocating for yourself.
