I'm have hypothyroidism like my mother. her's has been removed & been cancerous twice since 2015. i'm feeling a node now, should i get it checked?

Thyroid: If you have hypothyroidism you should be taking thyroid medicine. If you are feeling a node in the neck you should see a thyroid specialist to determine if there is a problem. Not likely but cannot be sure till studies complete.
