I know I am being completely irrational but I spent 6 months as a student nurse in surgical theatres and know the

Thyroid Cancer Finally Confirmed
OK, so after finding my nodule in November and being messed about for nearly a year because my old GP refused to examine me properly, I had my Thy4 nodule removed by
hemithyroidectomy
and isthmusectomy in September.

hemithyroidectomy post op
I had one a week ago. I was kept in for three nights as the wound was still draining. I've been home since Sunday but I seem to be feeling worse, rather than better. I've got a crippling headache, I'm told this might be caused by the head being clamped backwards during surgery, but also my neck seems

Hello, new to list but not to PCA
Hemithyroidectomy
March 2009, benign tumor. April 15 scheduled lung biopsy. Found extensive small mets on pleura of left lung. Biopsy revealed PCA in mets with cells appearing very similar to original cellular description from 12 years earlier. PSA was 11.8 at time of biopsy.

Getting impatient on Thyroid-S
I had a partial parathyroidectomy and
hemithyroidectomy
in March 2015. I know, for sure, that I feel one helluva lot better now than I did before my op ( I felt nearly dead on my feet!) but I feel as if I have replaced one set of problems with another. I was diagnosed with CFS ten years ago.

Remnant thyroid tissue after thyroidectomy alters hormone balance
The
hemithyroidectomy
plus levothyroxine therapy arm had free T3 and free T4 levels similar to controls, whereas the
hemithyroidectomy
without levothyroxine arm had lower free T4 (P < .01), similar free T3 and higher free T3 to free T4 ratios (P < .001) than controls.

Hemithyroidectomy
Hi, I had a
hemithyroidectomy
about 10 weeks ago to remove a large benign nodule. I was discharged by the hospital (Royal Marsden) but told to get a blood test after 6-8 weeks which I did at my GP surgery. I didn't see a doctor, just booked it myself. The result was TSH 3.34 (0.3-3.94).

Left Hemithyroidectomy done
I had my

I am falling asleep at my desk every day around 3pm
I have been hypothyroid for 22 years but recently in November underwent a
hemithyroidectomy
to remove a lump (benign goitre) I was told I could try t3 after this settled down but now my consultant went back on this and said my results are normal.
