Hi, dear
I have gone through your question.
I can understand your concern.
You had history of pneumonia. Your raspy voice is not due to spot on thyroid but it may be due to some respiratory problems.

Go for ultrasound thyroid and if required go for fine needle aspiration cytology of thyroid nodule. It will give you exact idea. Then start treatment accordingly.

Hope I have answered your question.
If you have any doubts then feel free to ask me. I will be happy to answer.
Thanks for using health care magic. Wish you very good health.
