Default Bad news

Ig,

Sorry to hear of your bad news. The only good thing I can think of is that
the worst possibility, thyroid cancer, is quite curable. Hope it doesn't
come to that, but at least it isn't your pancreas.

Just today I learned that I have a growing nodule on the place where
half of my thyroid was removed due to adenoma 10 years ago. The nodule
is hypoechoic and is about 1x1x1 cm.

My grandpa had thyroid cancer in 1969, so it must be hereditary. He
says he still has my histology report from my surgery 10 years ago,
it said the adenoma was benign (to say benign adenoma is redundant)

news like this are a great appetite suppressant...

Sorry about the bad news, Ig. Hopefully it's nothing serious.

That's what I'm thinking. It's just one of those adventures of having a
body. He'll live. Lucky he has health insurance.

What does hypoechoic mean? That it's hollow?
