  1. Hashimoto's Thyroiditis (Hashi's Disease) Forum
    My doctor hasn't messaged me yet about the results. This is just the dictation from the doctor who studied the ultrasound. This is good news though, right? Only having one nodule and having it be hyperechoic are good signs I think, as well as the mention of "no vascularity". I don't know what...
  2. Hashimoto's Thyroiditis (Hashi's Disease) Forum
    My intro post is here: http://thyroidboards.com/forums/topic/28098-34f-with-hashimotos/ Could someone tell me how many images are usually saved during a thyroid ultrasound? I've had ultrasounds of other areas of my body before that I'd think would be more involved and have more to look at than...

    Can anyone make sense of this and what comes next? My blood work indicates low Vit D, and anemia. My over TSH is normal. I was recently diagnosed with Eosinophillic Esophagitis. I have ongoing discomfort in my neck. I've never had any surgeries, aside from two c-sections. Any insight will be...

    My first symptom was with dysphagia, which led to learning that something was compressing my esophagus. Here is information from the ultrasound of my neck. I see my doctor next week and am a little nervous. My overall TSH level is 0.91. The right lobe of the thyroid measures 2.4 cm AP x 3.2 cm...

    Hello there, so I went an had an U/S done of my thyroid and the person who performed it was a Dr. He told me that my thyroid itself was enlarged, I had 2, 1cm nodules on the left and one 2cm nodule on the right. He also said that I had a lymph node on the left as well. Long story short, I am...

  9. Thyroid Disease General Discussion Forum
    I've attached my result (see bottom, wouldn't attach- sorry!) I was wondering of you guys could help explain them. I'm new here, so forgive me if I ask a lot of questions. Since I had the ultrasound about two weeks ago, the swelling has increased. It has essentially filled in the creases in my...

  11. Hashimoto's Thyroiditis (Hashi's Disease) Forum
    Went in for my checkup and told the doctor I've had a hoarse voice for the past 2 years. I told him it has gotten worse. He felt my thyroid and noticed a lump. This lump has been there for awhile now and it's just getting bigger. He took me in for an ultrasound in his office. Then said he...
  12. Hashimoto's Thyroiditis (Hashi's Disease) Forum
    Hey everyone! I need some help understanding my ultrasound results. My doctor is was very dismissive and just shrugged it off as normal, but after googling some of the terms i'm a little scared now. Notes: I have been diagnosed with hashimotos for the last year and a half through an ultrasound...

  16. Thyroid Disease General Discussion Forum
    Hey guys! It's been a while since I've been on, and I've been thinking about everyone ever since. Well, my last US report back in September of last year had me getting a biopsy done at our local hospital, which IMO - was NOT fun. First off, the doctor explained that back in the 'day' he would...

    Newbie here.....found this board while research my US results. Lots of great threads here so I thought I would join and ask a few questions.

  20. Thyroid Disease General Discussion Forum
    Do you have a thyroid biopsy scheduled and are worried about how it will go? There are a lot of scary stories out there about pain, bruising, swelling, etc. It's hard to find good stories so I thought I'd share my own and hopefully quell some anxiety for someone since I was a basket case. I had...
