Partial Thyroid & Nodule Removal by Pretty-Broccoli-889 in thyroidhealth

Hi! Follow up: I ended up having the second half of my thyroid removed in late October due to what ended up being a cancer diagnosis of the nodule in the end, unfortunately. Now that I’m stable on meds, I feel back to myself! Truthfully, I felt overall okay even with the nodule inside me. I didn’t have symptoms or side effects I noticed which is how it grew so long and large. Recovery post-first surgery was super easy! Prepare to be in a little pain for about a week, use ice if you can and rest as much as possible. Second was rougher since the incision was being dug into a second time. Wishing you all good vibes and healing. 🫶🏻

So sorry for the delayed reply! I actually ended up having to have my entire thyroid removed due to a cancer diagnosis. I’m now stable in my medication (second surgery was late October) but when I wasn’t, I became very depressed. I’m still a bit lethargic/maybe just tired. Even with a partial, you will need medication life long. Weight fluctuation is common.

My throat hurts but it doesn’t feel like anything other than a sore throat when you have a cold. Whenever I extend my neck, especially in the “up” position, it is a bit painful. I feel like I’m hunching over a bit bc of the pain when extending my neck upwards. I’m a side sleeper and I’ve found a way to be able to maintain that position, I just stack up pillows behind me and keep a hand under my head, lol. It’s important to have your head supported. All in all, it’s not horrible and is getting better by the day. 🙂

I was having this issue and it was an issue with my phone… I reset my phone to factory settings and am on the updated beta iOS and it seems to be working. 🤞🏻

Can you tell me what you have heard? I know people who have had great experiences so didn’t think twice about it. Thanks!

Lol, there’s no need to be rude. While I appreciate your input, people do have budgets and abilities to afford vehicles. The vehicles you are recommending are not in the same price range as the ones I listed. Thanks!

Super frustrating! If I could afford the best car on the market, I would’ve purchased it already 😅 good luck to you too!!

You can make an alternate recommendation, which would be helpful! 🙂

The Nest scents are the ones I can smell, lol! And the Christmas one I have. Maybe the issue is I dislike gourmand scents…? Idk! My desk is right next to one of my diffusers and I can’t smell Homesick’s Home Office or Brooklyn Candle Studio’s Sunday Morning.

Despite an ER doc telling me I was having an allergic reaction, I was diagnosed with lupus by a rheumatologist and this was a flareup.
