Surgery: Thyroidectomy Update
Just a couple of items. First, I was speaking to the physician on call last night on the telephone due to some symptoms I was worried about (he thinks I am fine) and he tells me that growths like the grapefruit-sized one they removed from by my clavicle/collarbone are usually not cancerous. That’s optimistic. He was surprised that I was able to swallow at all before the surgery.
Second, I have my post surgical followup visit tomorrow afternoon to get checked over and have some stitches removed. Supposedly, the results of the biopsies will be known then and I should have the results. I pray and hope it will be good news.
Finally, I’m now gotten off the oxocodone painkillers and am taking just regular Tylenol for the pain. I’m glad because that oxocodon was messing me up. It made my head swim and under bright lights of computer & TV monitors it made my stomach churn. Since my normal job is working on a computer, there would have been no way I could have done my job. I’m still getting physically fatiqued easily but that should ease soon enough.
