Thy3f lump found. Waiting for thyroid lobectomy

I've had a lump on my right side of thyroid for nearly 3 years. I had an ultrasound which was u3 and the an fna which came back as thy3f. My nodule is 5.6 cm so quite large and I'm currently waiting those diagnostic thyroid lobectomy. So nervous for surgery but the waiting is worse, just want to know exactly what it is. It's been over 6 months from first ultrasound to even get to this point. Any one in a similar position
