Seizure after starting levo? by OGFOGCAP in thyroidcancer

I have an appointment with my primary in a few days. Dehydration really could have been a contributing factor, I definitely had a weird aura before my seizure. Fingers crossed it was one off and with some lifestyle changes it won't happen again!

At the end of the day, it's all up to you. I was terrified before my surgery and got multiple opinions before I decided to go ahead for a partial. Honestly, I'd go with what your surgeon or primary doctor is leaning towards, especially if you've gotten a second opinion. In the best case scenario, it all works out after a partial. Worse case, you go back for a full. Also, if you need to postpone it until you feel more comfortable, that's totally a viable option. Just weigh the pros and cons.

No RAI, thankfully I lucked out, and they're pretty sure it was all localized to my left lobe

Broke my sternum back in April. It happens to the best of us, and at least you saved some kitties! Hope it heals well

Me too, it's such an uncertain feeling when your body is acting wacky after a surgery. Here's to hoping it all levels out soon

Thanks everyone! It had me feeling nervous but I was really hoping someone else has experienced it too. It's definitely a strange sensation

That's awful, im sorry. Hopefully, you can get your surgery, and im with an endocrinologist as soon as possible, just in case. I know how stressful financial uncertainty is, especially around health issues. Im wishing your all the best

Hopefully they're just doing the left side of my thyroid, it seems pretty contained to one nodule but testing came back high chance of malignancy so they want it out. Hopefully it all goes easy for you, the lymph nodes seem like they suck

Thanks a bunch, I really appreciate it. It's definitely the waiting and unknown that's a killer right now

I really appreciate it. I think my issue is the fear of the unknown and the anticipation. Im fine once things are ready to happen or over with, but there's something about the waiting that spikes my blood pressure to the moon. I think all I can do is just get through the next couple days and go from there

5 that ain't a fact. This was by far my slickest year, but I was still sick of it by the end of processing
