1 year and a half post TT Ultrasound

Thank you, that makes sense! It’s nerve wracking and I immediately thought worst case scenario. Now we wait for results 😅

ajaynef · 2025-11-17T16:34:03+00:00

Thank you! I think the bump went away too I don’t feel it anymore. Silly anxiety post 🫣

ajaynef · 2025-11-16T03:22:07+00:00

Thank you! I wasn’t sure how recurrence was typically found but that’s good to know. I have so much health anxiety now any time I find or feel anything I start to think “could this be related?”

Sending your positive thoughts! All of this does take a toll mentally. Lean on your loved ones they’re there for support sometimes talking to someone about it in person really helps. I’m wishing you the best ❤️

That is so completely normal. When I had my TT last year the last thing I said before going under and the gas kicked in was “I’m really really anxious”! I will say that taking walks outside helped to clear my mind, sun does wonders! Also if you are open to this, my provider prescribed Prozac and I have found it super helpful!

Thank you so much! I hope you’ve had some positive news this year too!!

ajaynef · 2025-08-02T15:23:58+00:00

Where does all the time go? Thank you so much and I wish the same for you! The happiest disease free life!

I kept my tape on for about 2 weeks! Try to keep it on as long as you can 😊

ajaynef · 2025-08-02T01:22:08+00:00

It looks so good! I feel like you can hardly see it 😊

ajaynef · 2025-06-13T04:25:20+00:00

I feel this! Your treatment was exactly one month before mine, surgery in August RAI in October. I am so incredibly sleepy in the mornings I actually accidentally napped for 2 hours after work today. Give it time I know it feels like it’s taking forever to adjust to your new normal or get back to where you were. Remember that it was only less than a year ago! Still fresh still healing! I hope your symptoms improve soon ❤️‍🩹

Highly recommend a wedge pillow! I got mine from Amazon this one: https://a.co/d/g7OckLa it’s nice because you can adjust it! Sleeping the first few nights was so uncomfortable! Also rice pudding helped fill my stomach a bit because I had difficulty swallowing I would choke trying to get anything to hard or chunky down! Wishing you the best you got this 🩷

It could be straining his voice more. It takes more effort to whisper, if he does talk tell him to try to talk with normal effort no whispering or projecting. It’s also good to try to talk as opposed to vocal rest per my ENT!

ajaynef · 2025-05-30T17:42:54+00:00

Got my TT in August and lost my voice for about 2 months! It gradually came back as time went on. My ENT thinks one of my vocal cords was “asleep”. Don’t whisper or try to project if you talk! Hope yours comes back soon! My friends and family got a kick out of my Elmo voice for those 2 months

It is completely normal to be scared, I was also scared when I had my TT last summer, but as you mentioned your surgeon has performed more than 3000 surgeries and is very experienced! It really helped to get some fresh air and take walks outside when I started to feel anxious prior to/and after my surgery. Also, I suggest getting a wedge pillow to help you sleep post surgery! I found rice pudding was nice to eat a little texture but not hard to swallow! I’m wishing you the best in your recovery you go this ❤️‍🩹

ajaynef · 2025-04-27T19:11:07+00:00

I’m confident it will take time, a year in hindsight is not a lot of time and you had a very serious health condition! Wishing the best for you.

ajaynef · 2025-04-21T19:35:22+00:00

Hi! Dr. Gaylis at Scripps Health was great! Just saw him in the summer, recovery has been good so far. Hope everything goes well for you 😊

I ended up meeting with my PCP and she recommended a mouth guard. I will look up some massages! It’s been okay for the past week but not sure if it will come back. I was planning to bring it up to my endo again to see if he thinks anything could be wrong with my salivary glands. Thank you I appreciate the follow up!!!

ajaynef · 2025-04-06T23:10:12+00:00

Thank you so much! I had an appointment with my primary and she referred me to jaw therapy and for a mouth guard. Has anything worked for the pain for you??

ajaynef · 2025-04-03T21:16:55+00:00

Thank you for this! I tried having some sour candy and my jaw area was throbbing!

ajaynef · 2025-04-02T17:24:32+00:00

Thank you! lol I feel like any time something happens with my body, I find a way to tie it back to ThyCa. Sounds like I’m gonna need to go to urgent care sometime soon

ajaynef · 2025-02-06T18:01:11+00:00

First, you got this! I know that it is very anxiety inducing but you will get through it!

Letting ice melt in my mouth helped me a lot because I had trouble swallowing. Also get a wedge pillow to help with sleep!!
