I have a level 3? (on a scale of 1-5 in seriousness) lump on thyroid so within 6 weeks I will be having a needle in my neck for a biopsy to see if I have thyroid cancer. I was asked if I have a family history of cancer, which I don't, if i've been exposed to radiation, etc. I never even considered thyroid cancer, I thought it would by lymphoma. The good news is from what I can see it generally has a good survival rate and I'm only 29. I have no other symptoms other than lumps.

I have my blood test results on Thursday, and another neck scan in 8 days on the Monday.

I've been incredibly anxious but now I actually feel better knowing what it could be and I'm going to try to be positive. I'm not religious and haven't been for a few years, so I'm relying on myself for strength, and that just makes me feel strong in itself.

I wish everyone a great day and stay strong and brave. Even if you have to cry, you're still strong and brave and I'm here for you. <3
