Anyone find out they have cyst in thyroid pre-op???

[Deanna V. 4]

Has anyone got their ultrasound results back with the findings of a cyst in their thyroid? I did last week and I'm curious what the process looks like if it is and isn't cancerous. They told me to make an appointment with my primary doctor to have a scan done to find out if it's cancerous or not. I'm not really worried if it is cancerous. But I would like an idea of what to expect and what anyone else has gone through. Does it postpone any other pre-op tests? I haven't gotten approved yet or not and that's really my main concern, if it will interfere with the gastric sleeve surgery.

Thanks so much (:

I had what they call a goiter on my thyroid (this was years before surgery). I had to have surgery to have it removed. I would say it depends. They could do a needle aspiration on it to draw some Fluid and see if it's benign. How are your thyroid levels?

Most thyroid nodules are benign but definitely get t checked! I have some on mine they monitor regularly, but a needle biopsy showed they were benign (non cancerous).
