What Is The Best Course Of Action For A Thyroid Nodule And Lymph Node Issue, Considering Options Like Surgery, Biopsy, Or Radiation?

hello , Im from toronto ontario canada . Im a covid survivor in my 1 year anniversary this month . And I came close to passing away I had a 50 50 survival rate . But god saved me I made it through the rain . And now I have a new medical issue that I am very scared , worried , nervous about as I know the out come result already right now , But I need 2 second opinion please - I just found out that I have a thyroid nodule in my throat , plus lymph node issue as well - what is my best course of action at this point ? I will be doing my 3rd ultra sound in 6 months - then I must make a decision about a course of action . They did mention surgery of which I do not plan on doing , or a thyroid biopsy of which I do not want to do either , and finally they also said something about radiation of which I know nothing about . So at thip point my doctor is hounding me and harrasing me on this and if she doesnt stop then I will go to my local police and file a report against for her for harrasement suit and I will talk to a local lawyer to go after her to . But what is your over all opinion about my new mediacal issue thanks for your time into my new problem .

Hi,

Thyroid nodule standard approach is to get a thyroid scan, a USG neck. Based on the finding, take a decision on FNAC and biopsy concluding lymph node biopsy and FNAC of lymph node. Without these, it is difficult to decide on a treatment plan.

Take care. Hope I have answered your question. Let me know if I can assist you further.
