Hi everyone !

In usual groups, a new member is a happy moment... not sure about

this one... lol

I haven't been diagnosed with thyroid cancer yet, but I have a big

thyroid nodule... hard with soft core and from what I've read, there

are some chances the mass may be malignant. I had a scan and it's

not a cyst... (spelling... sorry about that. My mother tongue is

French *smile*). So I thought I'd join a group now so that I can

find questions to answer I might have down the road, if indeed it is

cancerous.

It's been found about 3 months ago but because I was getting married

and moving to a new country, I had to wait to see an endo. I'm

seeing her in a few weeks. I expect a biopsy and maybe a scan. I'm

not really worried about the biopsy although it's probably

uncomfortable... just about the result *smile* I still don't have

children and I don't even know if that's a concern I should have or

not. So many questions... so many ifs and buts !!

I look forward to reading the group's posts. I'm glad to see that it

is quite active and that members are honest about what they are going

through. It helps newbies like me alot, I'm sure. I like to know

what I'm getting myself. Not the adventurous kind !

By the way, my name is and I'm 28. I got married less than

2 months ago and moved to California from Eastern Canada. Quite the

change !

Bye for now,

(actually, friends call me Tessie)
