I will answer any questions you have regarding the thyroid whether it be cancer, cysts (types), hyperthyroidism, hypothyroidism, blood tests for thyroid problems, surgery, fine needle biopsies etc...

Experience
My complex cysts on my right thyroid gland and the isthmus were found my accident when my doctor thought I was having a TIA. The ultrasound found a complex cysts the size of a golf ball (which turned out to be the size of a tennis ball when it was surgically remove). Doctors were totally surprised because for 5 years, including the day I went to surgery, all of my thyroid blood work was "within the normal range". So much for blood work being conclusive..

Question
HI,

I have a problem. During lunchtime and dinnertime my lymph node swells(on the left side of my neck). Ihave shown this problem to doctor who told me this was some kind of infection and gave following medicines for 5 days 1.RONCLA 625   2.SYNOFLAM   3.DOMZOTE  . After taking this medicines there was no problem. but now after 4 weeks it has appeared again. I have got a  chronic cold problem also Iaam allergic to preservatives in food.  

Is this some serious problem or is it happening because of my allergies.. Please advise me?  

Answer
Dear Anurag,   This sounds like side effects from your food preservative allergies and not a thyroid or actual lymph node problem....  However, I am NOT familiar with these medications you were given either and what they are actually for...

You need to get your food allergies under control by NOT having anything that contains the preservatives you are allergic to and read ALL labels carefully before you BUY or EAT them...

thank you,   karen
