A member asked:
If calcium was found in my thyroid does that mean weather its cancer or not i still have to do surgery to take it out because of the calcium?

No, it is not. You should read this abstract - https://www.thyroid.org/patient-thyroid-information/ct-for-patients/may-2018/vol-11-issue-5-p-8-9/ - Take care.
