Thyroid problems?

Hello everyone,

My problem is that I have had the feeling for some time that something is wrong with my thyroid.

Several years ago, I had laryngitis. During the examination, my family doctor said my thyroid appeared slightly enlarged. She couldn't find anything on the ultrasound and referred me to a radiologist. He also did an ultrasound and didn't find anything. This seemed odd to me, so I went back to a second radiologist – the same thing happened for the third time.

Now I'm sitting here feeling pressure on my thyroid. My lymph nodes are also slightly swollen. I sometimes get both of these symptoms for no apparent reason. I've also been tired for years and have trouble concentrating. I also have two cases of Hashimoto's in my family.

The three doctors I saw didn't reveal anything. I feel like a hypochondriac asking for another test, but here at home, I have the feeling something might not be quite right.

I'm a bit confused now. Could a blood test perhaps be more informative than an ultrasound, or can we assume that all three tests are reliable? Is anyone here with thyroid problems perhaps having similar experiences?
