STUCKWITH3: My Thyroid is stressed!

2 weeks ago, i thought i had tonsilitis. i can't swallow nor move my neck and it hurted really bad whenever someone touches my neck. I had fever and frequent headaches. when i felt a lump, i suspected i have thyroid problems.(It runs in the family) and my suspicions appeared to be true. :( Just got my (sonogram)thyroid ultrasound results a while ago and it is considered as a " Medical thyroid disease , Bilateral with nodules, as described." It's quite disturbing.
Isthmus shows tiny cyst measuring 0.17cm.
Left lobe measures 3.98 x 1.03 x 1.48 cm with hypoechoic nodule in the mid pole measuring 0.55 x 0.39 cm.

Hypoechoic means that less waves are being reflected back and less echoes are being produced.. Anechoic means that no echoes are being produced - typicaly seen when the sound waves pass though fluid as clear as water.

A hypoechoic nodule is a nodule or small cyst that is reflecting back less echoes - meaning that the nodule contains some amount of thick substance inside. An anechoic nodule will contain clear fluid.

Maybe my Endocrinologist will advise me to have a biopsy ( fine needle aspiration to be exact) tomorrow. hopefully there will be no surgeries required.

Before all that, i was having a hard time looking for a perfect hospital/clinic for me to have a sonogram. Perfect, meaning the price range should be affordable... or rather cheap. Tone called each and one of the clinics' numbers posted on the internet. It was a sunday and most of the clinics were closed. The last one on his list was HI-PRECISION DIAGNOSTICS ( His first ever job as a medtech was in hi pre! haha) We were like "Why in the world HI PRE was the last on our list??" Anyway, we were so relieved and felt lucky when the receptionist told him that they are open until 12pm! and the price? 400! cheap. yey! I instantly texted my achie to accompany me. HI PRECISION is i think the nicest/ cleanest/ precised/affordable diagnostic lab in the RP right now. They already have 7 branches all over the metro.

They have :
