Hi I have had lumps on my thyroid twice first time on my right parathyroid gland in 2004 I had blood tests my thyroid levels were normal however it was getting larger so I had the gland removed it turned out that it was benign  then in 2017 I was found to have a retrosternal goitre on my left thyroid had biopsy's done it is benign but because it's relatively slow growing they are not operating  what I am trying to say is most of the time they are benign  so try not to worry too much harder to do than say keep strong
