What are the chances of having Lymphoma found during a routine biopsy of my thyroid after it was removed becasue of Graves disease. This was very unexpected and they considered it localized just in the thyroid. I had a pet scan and ct and they were negative. It has been one year since this happened. What are the odds of a reoccurance? The Docs say that they will test my blood every 3 months for changes becasue someday this will return? Any ideas?
Thanks, pins and needles every 3 months

I had a Thyroidectomy 1 year ago for Graves . Upon routine pathology they found Non Hodgkins Lymphoma. Had tests, it had not spread. Now Spleen is enlarging. I feel like a time bomb, they say it will come back sometime, somewhere.
