Goiter: A goiter, size increased from 4 cm to 7.1 cm? Suspicious needle biopsy and positive pet scan? Possible breast cancer? You need consult with surgery and endocrinology. More information is needed, but likely you will benefit from thyroid surgery. The pathology exam will make diagnosis, and cancer is a concern. This is complicated, so take a friend with you for your consult.
