Did you have any troubles with calcium in post-op? That's my biggest concern right now. I really like my surgeon so I'm very happy.
I had another surgery scheduled for May 22nd. I will have a total hysterectomy and the removal of a couple of lung nodules. We are keeping our finger's crossed that the nodules aren't malignant. The initial biopsy said they were "non diagnostic"
Good luck to you too!
I am doing very well. I have recovered amazingly well. I had a great surgeon, and my follow up care has been great. It took a while to get over the fatigue but other than that all is well.
Hope your surgery goes well. Please let us know how you are doing.

How are you doing?
The prognosis is excellent for this type of cancer, but it can be hard for bypass patients to regulate their calcium afterwards. So scary!
I really only know one person who has ever had thyroid cancer and that was the woman who did the pre-admitting at the hosptial when I had my double mastectomy. She had a scar on her throat and told me that she just got back to work. She told me her prognosis was very good!
I hope your surgery goes well.
