Suggest Treatment For Nodules On The Lungs

I am a 72year old woman that has nodules on my lungs that the doctor keeps watching every 3 month. I did have lymphoma 10 years ago and had 6 weeks of radiation. The cancer has been in remission all that time. I now have nodules in the size of cm now on my thyroid that I went for a ultrasound that showed the nodules. I am now going to go to an endocrinologist to see what SHOULD BE DONE. THANK YOU.

Hello,
Welcome to hcm,
I advise you to get FNAC done to rule out any malignancy in the thyroid nodules. FNAC is very sensitive in detecting any malignancy.

Thank you
