Need help PLEASE!!!

2 Years ago I had my thyroid tested a TSH,3rd and the results where 22.50 and it says it is high.2 years later I have this massive lump in my throat I have trouble swallowing ect, after CT scan that I had a thyroglossal cyst And if it got bigger it may have to be removed.. Ive started having major mood swings, not sleeping losing 22 pounds when im only136 poundswent to a family doc who then tested my thyroidmy tsh,3rd generation /w reflex to FT4is32.43.MyT4Fre 0.6 I really dont understand any of this Which I did. The right Lobe measures 3.5. x2.3x 1.5 cm.There is an isoechoic nodule involving the lateral midportion measuring 1.4 x 1.1 cm.The istbmus measures 9mm, There is hypoechoic structure extending superiorly from the isthmus measuring 3.8 x 0.9 cm/ This was previously reported to represent a thyroglossal duct cyst. The left lobe measures 3.8 x 1.4x 1.5. Impression: a 3.8x0.9 cm hypoecohic mass extending superiorly from the isthmus possibly reporting patiens know thyroglossal duct cyst.  Correlation with prior imaging is recommended. Solitary right tyhroid nodule non specific finding.I know theres alot of typos

The TSH is consistently high meaning HYPOthyroidism - Hashimoto's is the most common cause and this requires treatment with levothyroxine.

The nodule requires FNA biopsy as does what appears to be a thyroglossal duct (TGD) cyst.  However, most of the time, the ENT will recommend removing the TGD cyst even if the FNA is benign.  This is a reasonable approach as the cyst may be contributing to some of the symptoms.

I had to continue down here because I went over the limit!! lol!!!

And im sorry I have a 4 year old and 2 year old running circles around me right now.. But, my question being what does all this mean? I went to an endocrinologist last week and I left with more questions than I had before.We wants to do a biopsy of my thyroid I guess and my cyst thats in the middle of my throat Im scared to death.I have also lost almost all of my voice It comes and goes and he wants me to see an ENT to see whats wrong with my larnyx.I wake up in the morning and all my joints EVERY SINGLE ONE of them hurt so bad that I cant even get outta bed I have been prescribed percocet but it doesnt touch the pain  I usually have to double up on it to even move in the am and then continue taking at least 2 percocet every 4 hours or the pain comes back even worse. Is all this related?I think I have Hoshimotos diease but I cant get anyone to listen to me. I was in so much pain this morning that. It feels as though someone is squeezing my throat all day long and theres sand paper down there.
