Answers:
Do you have a toxic diffuse goiter? If so, BULLS*** there is no other way to get rid of it, and shame on any doctor who told you that! That is malpractice. RUN AWAY from any doctor who told you that, NOW!
You do not need major, dangerous surgery in such a delicate area of the body to get rid of it. Do really want a surgeon near your vocal cords? Carotid artery? Parathyroid gland? Trachea?
All you need is a cheap, generic, prescription medication called methimizole. It will not get rid of your goiter all at once, but it will shrink, bit by bit, month by month, as you get better.
