I had the surgery over 2 yrs ago now. The hardest
part is trying to gtup from a lying position because
you don't realiZe how much you us the neck muscles to
get up. I had limited movement for a couple of days.
They did prescibe painkillers but I only took them at
night. I was in the the hospital overnight and then
got to come home. I was better within 2 weeks after
each surgery. I had 2 surgeries because they found 4
spots. 2 weeks after the first surgery they operated
again to remove more thyroid and remove cancer. I had
my thyroid killed off also and now take a thyroid
hormone.

I feel much better now.
