hey seen no comment so thought id reply although I don't know much, my endo has advised me to have a right lobectomy for my thyroid nodule, how did it go? x
Hi, I had the same last year no problems, quick recovery, right side maintaining levels.
Best wishes Helen
Good luck with your recovery claireware22 you are not alone as soon you will get lots of positive friendly comments from people who have also had a lobectomy.

Hi, I am scheduled to have my left side removed due to a 5cm growth on 17th May. I know of someone in my own town who had the operation at the same hospital back in December and although the operation was 3 1/2 hours, she said it was straight forward and she felt really well. She has no need for medication and having seen how little and neat her scar is I am not so worried now and am looking forward to having this 'lump' removed after first noticing it 2 years ago.
