Hey Cannon,

Thanks for the information. I got the results of a second biopsy today, and it was also inconclusive. So September and November biopsies did not harvest enough cells for a conclusive biopsy. There is calcification, which I take as a good sign for non cancerous, but this leaves me in the "wait and see", another ultrasound and possible biopsy in six months. Nodules are stable with no growth between biopsies.

Endo is not in favor of removal at this point. I have another issue with my legs that I may be having a procedure for soon, so for now, I'm moving forward with leg issues and keeping watch on thyroid.
