Welcome to Healthcare Magic. I have reviewed your query and here is my advice.
It looks like you have hypothyroidism. You said your doctor advised ultrasound of thyroid but you didn't mentioned whether your thyroid functions tests were done or not. If not, then I would advise to get the tests done.
I hope I have answered your query. Let me know if you have any further questions.
Take care.
