I think what's worried me is that originally he thought it was a lingual thyroid and didn't need to do a biopsy to now he's done a biopsy.
I can't understand how he can see that it's ok but hasn't got the biopsy results yet. I'm not sure if he was just trying to make me feel better or not because only the biopsy results will confirm that diagnosis.
I asked him if it's not cancerous what is it? He just said I dont know. All the uncertainty is soooo stressful isn't it? On the discharge letter it also says consider re scan in two to three months so am not sure why they've put that on if they don't even know what it is yet?

Time will tell!!
