  • I have 3 thyroid nodules on the right...the biggest one being 3.4 cms. I had a biopsy on them 3 wks ago. I hated it...I don't understand why they keep u awake! throughout! it was scary. Im waiting for the results now.........wish me luck! :)

  • Our Prayers are with you. Please post again with the results so that others may be helped in their trials.

  • is the needle biopsy is painful?coz im having schedule for the biopsy done but im scared of needle.

  • J.L. As said in the video, The Dr. did NOT do the biopsy, but IF he had, He would have given me a shot of Novocain, like a Dentist would, to numb the area.

  • Did you have a blood work-up prior to the FNA? If so, how was your thyroid function?

  • I also felt a painful lump in my throat a couple of weeks ago and had an ultrasound, there two nodules and a cyst and a couple of lymph nodes. Now the lump has grown in a matter of days and i have to do a biopsy. I'm very scared but this video helped a lot. Thanks

  • @cherylbrash Thanks so much........I'm going to have this procedure next week and, not being a needle lover, I have been apprehensive. "completely painless" works for me! :)

  • i just had this done this morning and it was completly painless. i was scared and usually don't post, but I really appreciated someone else"s post!!
