I always think it sounds a bit like lizardy. voice-verified

I want a prawn goyota, please. voice-verified

So so voice-verified

A swollen of the thyroid gland could give you an underactive or overactive thyroid. voice-verified

It doesn't tell us what the issue is, it just tells us is something swollen. voice-verified

They could you could get something called thyroid nodules, which are just individual growths again, can be overactive or underactive, depending on what they're doing. voice-verified

But the the issue is, you know, could this be thyroid cancer? voice-verified

So whether it's a uh a what we call a diffusely swollen thyroid gland where it's swollen all over, or whether it's nodular where it's got one part. voice-verified

Swollen more than other parts, we would still always scan it. voice-verified

Uh, and I'd send you off for an urgent scan, and that would give me an idea of whether this might be a cancer or whether it's a goiter. voice-verified

Uh voice-verified

tell, they tell with a scan. voice-verified

So they do an ultrasound scan and then they will tell me and then I will just interpret the results. voice-verified

Is voice-verified

thyroid cancer voice-verified

Uh aggressive? voice-verified

To be fair, it's it's one of the the the cancers that have a better prognosis, uh, particularly if it's caught early like any cancer, doesn't tend to metastasize all that often, particularly again if it's caught early, and the and and you can surgically remove the thyroid and then go uh on thyroxine. voice-verified

So thyroid cancer, yeah, you don't want to have it. voice-verified

Yes, you need treatment, which is surgery and often radiotherapy as well. voice-verified

Well um but in terms of of prognosis it's got a good prognosis. voice-verified
