Seems like you all gave good advice but that didn't help my surgeons to change their minds about doing a needle biopsy in March when I asked about one. I am not very happy to say that its now September & the news I get to give my family is that the two ultrasounds I DID get show a tumor that has grown to almost double in size in my thyroid gland. My Dr said it is like being hit by lightning twice so they never expected to find anything so NOW I am getting the needle biopsy. I understand that the SCC of the tongue I had removed in March is not connected to my thyroid so hopefully it isnt even cancerous. Does anyone ever stop worrying once they have had cancer of any form? I do hope so. My thyroid gland showed a small 1cm mass in the right lobe in May when they did the Rad.scan and an ultrasound showed it clearer, we waited to see if the rad would shrink it as it was so small it is now almost doubled in size & NOW warrants a biopsy...4 mos later. Am I crazy to worry? Has anyone heard of the thyroid connection to oral cancer? I'd love if we all could carry on without worries, your folks & mine!
