I have a 3.75 cm nodule on my thyroid it has not grown since 2013 i had biopsy in 2010 and 2013 both were non cancerous dr said should have it removed?

Thyroid nodule: Ignore potential cancer if the nodules are not growing. That said, you should probably see a thyroid surgeon. In m opinion, if the large nodules are stable you should have the nodules removed and you can relax. Please let me know what develops.
