I spent mine in the hospital getting a thyroidectomy. My ENT has been following me for a couple of years and decided now was the time.
Only the right half needed to be removed. He said the left half looked good, so no supplements right now.
mt neck is a little bruised; but it cleaned up well with hubby's help. Just waiting for the results of whatever they do when they remove something like that.
I told hubby it looks like someone slit my throat. Which, technically, is what the doctor did. Just much more nicely. When it is fully healed, you probably won't even be able to tell.
I praise God for blessing the doctors and nurses, and for His hand in my surgery.
BIL called yesterday and was surprised to hear me talking mostly normally.
Called my mom after I got home, and she said I sounded normal, so I give glory to God for that.
God willing, I'll feel good enough to go to the Canton First Monday Trade Days with hubby this weekend. We'll see.
Be safe and God bless.


Didn't know you were going in for surgery. So glad you are doing well. Thyroid problems run in my mother's side of the family. My youngest daughter had Graves disease and her thyroid removed on both sides. My oldest daughter has Hashimotos...and I am on Levothyroxine. Thyroid problems are bad. Hope you get well quick and get to go with your husband to the trade days. That sounds fun. Take care.
ReplyDeleteThey cut your throat, LindaG! I hope that it helped.
ReplyDeleteOMGoodness! So glad your surgery all went well, Linda.
ReplyDeleteAdd me to the list of those with thyroid issues. Healing vibes and prayers for continued "uneventful" healing!
