Patient's question:
Because of a certain illness, I have been unable to stop taking medication for a long time. Due to the medication, my endocrine system has become problematic. Now, I want to stop taking the medication and regulate my body. Please let me know if I have a thyroid nodule that has coexisted for 40 years.Doctor's answer:
For 40 years, the thyroid nodule has caused no discomfort or symptoms in your body, and the condition is good. In this case, clinical diagnosis generally does not require intervention, and regular follow-up checks are sufficient. However, you may still feel upset about the possibility of your thyroid nodule causing problems again in the future. This unresolved psychological knot is something you should discuss with a professional psychologist first. Share your concerns with them to see if it helps. If it doesn't, surgical removal may be necessary.
