Goiter

Back in March of 2008 I had a bad cold that just would not go away. I stopped into a Walgreens Clinic to get a script for and antibiotic because I was starting to think that it was a bacterial infection. The Nurse Practitioner there told me that I needed to have further testing done on my neck. She could feel large growths and she sent me to a doctors office where they could the testing. So from Walgreens I went straight to the doctors office where they told me I had a simple goiter and they ordered an ultrasound of the thyroid gland.

When the ultrasound was done I had the results sent to the doctors office. I never called to follow up because I just assumed no news was good news!
