Thyroid ultrasound shows right sided hyperemia, right lateral isthmic TR-3 module measuring 5x11mm, a cyst and another 5mm nodule on the right side. However the ultrasound also says no further follow up. My doc agreed. Should I see an endocrinologist?

I had a ct scan of neck, they saw small hypoechoic nodule in thyroid and an enlarged lymphnode, is it cancer?
Hypothyroid symptoms, enlarged thyroid with nodules on ultrasound, NORMAL TSH & thyroid blood tests but high TPO antibodies +22 (normal less than 9). Can this cause symptoms?
I have two vague hypoechoic solid appearing nodules(1- 6*7*4 mm) & (11*9*8 mm) within the right lobe in thyroid (ultrasound test). Any risk, please.
