Yes just get an ultrasound. It took about 5 mins they took some pics and I got a call a day or two later. I had the same thing happening. One day I was having trouble swallowing and noticed my neck area was swollen. Good luck I hope it's nothing serious

Thank you all I will get it check out!

Yep I was having the same issue a few weeks ago. I just got an ultrasound of my thyroid along with blood work done. Turns out I just have an enlarged thyroid. Ask to get an ultrasound some to check the size and make sure there's not nodules or lumps. Good luck

You could have something going on other than simple hypothyroidism. I'd get checked out soon.

I've got thyroid cancer, I had my thyroid removed when I was 12 and then had a non cancerous lump, similar to what you describe, removed. If your levels are all fine can you request a mri? An mri could pick up any lumps and if anything is picked up a needle biopsy done? Xx

My mom had the same and it was also a non-cancerous thing but it grew to the point it was choking her and she occasionally couldn't swallow. I'd get it checked out.

My mom had something similar - she has nodules on her thyroid. She got a biopsy and it wasn't cancer. She ended up having a partial thyroidectomy due to other issues. I also have thyroid issues - I have hoshimotos thyroiditis - its an autoimmune disease where your body attacks your thyroid and you end up with nodules(usually not cancer) and an under active thyroid. I get thyroid ultrasounds every year to make sure none of the nodules are growing. Do you see an endocrinologist? Usually mine will stand behind me while I'm seated and she feels my thyroid and tries to see if any significant nodules.

Great. Well thank you for the info! You are always so helpful

Not that I am aware of
