Morning :hello:
Saturday AFWhat do we do when we fall? We get up, dust ourselves off and start walking in the right direction again. Perhaps when we fall, it is easy to forget there are people along the way who help us stand and walk with us as we get back on track.0 -

Hi shaggy et al,lol. I am 14 AF days as definitely AF today.
Went for ultrasound of neck and thyroid on Thursday afternoon.
Findings: While scanning me the radiographer told the Consultant that she had found a nodule, but he told me that it was excess tissue that has been there since I was developing in the womb. I asked him what I could do now about the hoarseness, loss of voice, inability to shout or scream, cough, sore throat etc etc. He told me to go back to my GP to see ENT again. I had a tonsillectomy and adenoidectomy aged 8 and another tonsillectomy aged 28 so painful, I've had a fibre optic down my nose, speech therapy etc.
So I went to the GP by 8.15 am and was seen at 9.45 am, my GP said she could do nothing til she saw the scan, so I asked her to explain the name that the Consultant said the lump was as I couldn't remember it. She said she needed to see the scan. So while there I had a blood test for thyroid levels as been on 25mg since April and have to ring up for the results next Friday after 2pm and then see GP in 10 days for chat about scan and then she will refer me to ENT.
Sorry to ramble on, no-one to talk to here and wondered if you had any knowledge to share regarding the scan results, I've been googling and getting confused lol.
