Nodules are extremely common.

They can be completely symptom free

what blood test results have you had

For full Thyroid evaluation you ideally need TSH, FT4 and FT3 tested

plus both TPO and TG thyroid antibodies tested at least once

Also important to test vitamin D, folate, ferritin and B12

Test thyroid levels early morning around 9am for highest TSH
