My first bloodwork came back with high TSH, so I had to go get an ultrasound check to make sure my thyroid wasn't enlarged or anything. The ultrasound kind of sucked and made my throat swollen... it feels realllllly weird to get a thyroid rubdown. Anyways, the day our power went out I got a letter in the mail saying that I have "multiple small cysts- all appear to be benign". The benign part = good. The cyst part? Well, i'm pretty sure no one really wants a bunch of cysts hanging out anywhere in their body. I went back to get MORE bloodwork done and see if my TSH was any lower (it was 2.5 weeks later) and FINALLY got the results.
My TSH is normal! That means that yeah, there are cysts but they aren't causing any damage to my thyroid. I haven't heard from my doctor in awhile so I don't know if I'm supposed to just hang out with these things in my neck or what. Whatever! All I know is that I'm gaining weight and feeling better. Huzzah!
Now on to getting my wisdom teeth out. This is going to be so much fun! yaaaaay!
