I am 33 years old. I had a Thyroid scan one year ago after incidental finding of 11mm thyroid nodule. FNA showed Colloid Nodule.
A year later, follow up ultrasound. It is quoted as essentially stable as solid nodule 12mm x 10 x 6mm. Tiny cystic changes is again present. Mild Internal Vascularity. Left Lobe, Parenchymal echogenicity is normal, however vascularity is mildly increased. Same with Right Lobe. A new predominently cystic 8mm nodule is present on right isthmus.
Should I request to get another FNA if the nodule now has mild internal vascularity? It suggests I may also have background thyroiditis and clinical and biochemical correlation is suggested.
However, the dr I saw just said come back in a year for another ultrasound. My mother had her thyroid removed last year which had 2 papillary carcinomas.
