Thyroid node

Hi all. Just wondering if anyone else has had the same . I have just had my FNA on a 4.5 cm solid node in my right lobe . I am awaiting the results but slightly concerned . They have always said it might be cancer but rare to saying it might be benign . I might be reading too much in to this.The mass has a blood supply . Is this normal for benign growths or not.

Thanks

Mands74,

A large nodule with a blood supply has more chance of being malignant. Having said that, thyCa is rare, 95% of nodules are benign.
