With Thyroid Function Being Normal Should My Nodules Be Removed?
I JUST HAD A THYROID NUCLEAR SCAN. I HAVE MULTI-NODULES ON RIGHT SIDE. A GOITER. NONE OF THE NODULES WERE COLD. ALL ARE WARM AND FUNCTIONING. HAD AN ENTIRE THYROID PANEL DONE ALL THYROID LEVELS ARE WITHIN NORMAL LIMITS. WILL I HAVE TO HAVE IT REMOVED?

Hello and thank you for asking on HCM!
I can understand your concern.
Usually warm nodules have a very low probability of malignancy.
Your physician will recommend thyroidectomy if you have symptoms of compression of the adjecent structures from the nodules you reported.
For a personalised comprehensive evaluation, treatment recommendations, or individual therapy, ask me at HealthCareMagic at this private link:
