This is my story.
I went to visit my Primary Care Physician (PCP) on August 8, 2016 for a routine hypertension prescription refill visit. During this visit, my doctor did an over-all physical exam. After checking my neck she asked if anyone had ever had a discussion with me about my thyroid. Since no one had, she spoke with me about how she felt some nodules on my Thyroid and was going to have a thyroid blood panel and an ultrasound ordered. Two days later, my labs came back perfect:
On August 12, 2016 I went to the imaging center and had my ultrasound done. I received a call on August 16, 2016 from my PCP stating that she was referring me to an endocrinologist due to an enlarged thyroid with several nodules. Nodules on your thyroid is perfectly normal, especially in females and more so in females that have had children. A few of them where larger than the rest and could be tested further.
