So, a few weeks before I conceived my doctor found nodules on my thyroid. I was advised not to conceive and I thought my husband and I were good; watching the calendar, but naturally we ended up conceiving. I had a biopsy 2 days before I found out at my regular yearly with the OBGYN that I was pregnant. So, although I am thrilled, another part of me is feeling guilty because of my thyroid.
After the biopsy my endocrinologist said he was going on vacation so instead of the normal 5 day wait, I had to wait 2 weeks. Then he called yesterday and left a message that my cysts were benign and all was good. I was so relieved and finally feeling the excitement I should about my pregnancy. Both, my husband and I were very happy.
Today I got a voicemail saying I needed to call the doctor. He told me what he told me yesterday was wrong and that my largest cyst (I have multiples; the largest being 2.8mm) was inconclusive. He needs to do another biopsy. . . IN 2 MONTHS! I shared that I was currently pregnant and he said the bisopy wouldn't hurt the baby. I get that, but now for the entire first trimester I have to worry about this cyst and my baby's health and my health impacting the baby. I am so frustrated right now. Any words of wisdom? Does anyone else have nodules on their thyroids? Has anyone undergone surgery or medication while pregnant?
