Today I saw a throat specialist, I have a a couple thyroid Nodes, one was dominant but only 1.5cm in size, had a biopsy and was told non cancerous but I am continuing to feel like I am choking, I am on acid reflux medicine and today he doubled the dosage, he did a probe and said my left side of thyroid is swollen...is it possible this is just acid reflux doing this? He also said, often the biopsies are non conclusive and he would continue to monitor it and ultra sound yearly with only a 5% chance of cancer, he will not touch it for now.......should I trust it s just acid reflux causing my burning and choking feeling?
Depends on functioning of thyroid if biopsy is negative you get your blood tests for T3,T4 AND TSH AND IF FUNCTION IS NORMAL NO NEED TO FORSYTHE SWELLING IS DUE TO IODINE DEFICIENCY I HAVE TREATED MANY PATIENTS LIKE THIS STRATA WITH COLLOIDAL IODINE SVP 2 SF ONCE A DAY FOR 3 MONTHS BUT TAKE DECISION ONLY AFTER GETTING REPORTS OF TFT
