I had the sleeve done a little over a year ago. I had thyroid cancer in 2003 and just had surgery to have left over tissue and some lymph nodes removed in my neck. my stomach is the only thing that hurts. Is this normal after your stomach has been cut?

The tricky thing about a problematic thyroid is that many of the symptoms that may result from hyperthyroidism or hypothyroidism are easy to dismiss as non symptoms or as the result of some other condition or lifestyle factor. For example, weight gain -- a symptom of hypothyroidism -- is a common problem. Many people experience weight gain as they age and usually attribute it to such factors as a reduction in activity levels or an increase in calorie intake. Few people would think that their weight gain -- particularly unexplained weight gain -- could be a potential sign of an underlying thyroid problem.
