"Wilson’s (temperature) syndrome, also called Wilson’s thyroid syndrome or WTS, is a form of low thyroid function whose existence is controversial.
Wilson’s syndrome entered the health marketplace in 1990, when E. Denis Wilson, M.D., of Longwood, Florida, coined its name. Proponents say its manifestations include symptoms typical of low thyroid function such as fatigue, headaches, PMS, hair loss, irritability, fluid retention, depression, decreased memory, low sex drive, unhealthy nails, easy weight gain, and about sixty other symptoms. Wilson says that WTS can cause “virtually every symptom known to man.” He also says that it is “the most common of all chronic ailments and probably takes a greater toll on society than any other medical condition.”[citation needed]
Wilson says the condition can be reversible and that people can have it even when their routine thyroid blood tests are normal. He states that the condition is "especially brought on by stress" and can persist after the stress has passed. He says that the main diagnostic sign is a body temperature that averages below 98.6° F (oral), and that the diagnosis is confirmed if the patient responds to treatment with a "special thyroid hormone treatment" (the WT3 protocol in the Doctor’s Manual written by Dr. Wilson).
According to Dr Wilson,[1] if your body temperature is routinely below 98.2ºF, you should be tested for the familiar thyroid problems using the thyroid stimulating hormone (TSH) test. However if your body temperature is low and the test is normal, you may have Wilson's Temperature Syndrome.
The American Thyroid Association (ATA) disagrees. On May 24, 2005, the ATA issued this Updated Statement on "Wilson's Syndrome" which said in part: "The ATA's thorough review of the biomedical literature has found no scientific evidence supporting the existence of "Wilson's Syndrome." [2]
Dr. Wilson’s rebuttal to the ATA statement can be found on the WilsonsSyndrome.com website. [3]
In March of 2006 an article on the WT3 protocol for Wilson’s Temperature Syndrome was published on PubMed. [4]"

Thank you guys so much for the feedback. I just have a huge fear of death as it is, although I am sure we all do. I am just really scared. It is good that no internal vascularity usually means it is non cancerous. I am going to start walking every day and try to eat better and take my prenatal vitamins which I stopped taking. I am hoping this just has to do with how stressed and warn down I have been after having my baby. Did something on the report note that the nodule was highly moveable, I didn’t see that on my report, but didn’t know if it was in doctor’s terminology which I so don’t understand. I will get a low fluoride toothpaste. I really do appreciate the feedback from both of you. I am going to try to post for the doctor on here, but every time I have tried, it states the questions limit has been reached for the day. I also wonder if I have Wilson’s Temperature Syndrome, not sure if either one of you heard of that, but my temperature averages in the 97 range every day. Thanks again.
No internal vascularity means the nodule is most likely NON cancerous.
Highly moveable cystic nodule is NOT cancerous either.
Solid fixed nodule is one that cancerous.
The isthmus is the bridge between two thyroid lobes in front of the neck , below the voice box
The homogeneous echo texture meansuniform cell distribution, no pathological cells.
You could have condition called post-partum thyroiditis.
The fluoridated toothpaste is believed to impair thyroid function; try to use low-fluoride toothpaste.
AACE recommends to do a thyroid neck check self test to monitor any increase of swelling.
Hope that helps.
I am sorry you are so stressed out but please do not be so worried and it is not usually cancer. If they thought it was cancerous on would assume they would have asked to have more test now not in 6-12 months time. If you do not understand your report ring your doctor and ask them to explain it for you so that you fully understand what is going on after all that is what they are paid for. Do not feel embarrassed or uncomfortable asking all the questions you need to to feel comfortable with their decision to follow up in 6-12 months. You can also ask the doctor on this website but I would most definately ring the doctor who did your tests. bestest
