Thyroid Biopsy: What to Expect

Find out exactly what to expect when getting a thyroid biopsy at The Center for Thyroid and Parathyroid Care. The process from the moment you walk in the door until you leave only takes about 30 minutes, with minimal pain and recovery time needed.

I'm here trying to find out if it's normal to have a soar throat several days after thyroid biopsy?

I would like to see a visual of what is happening. Maybe an animated view but this is not helping me understand how this biopsy happens without stabbing the esophagus or is the esophagus being stabbed?

My wife was immediately sent for a CT scan after her biopsy on her Thyroid. I think the doctor went a little too far.

I almost passed out on Tuesday from mine they wheeled me out on a wheelchair I was crying

I had mine today and thought I'd be fine after reading lots of comments saying it's uncomfortable but not painful. Even the nurse said this. The needle going in was ok, a bit stingy and a weird uncomfortable feeling but the needle poking around in the nodule made me cry out and I got all shaky and nearly passed out with the pain.

It’s painful! I’ve had three, and always found it an awful procedure.
