Surgery Recovery
Posted On 02/23/2008 03:16:36 by caslon

I had my thyroid gland surgically removed last Monday, yikes. It was my first surgery, so I was a little nervous. But let me say that the "happy juice" they gave me just before surgery made me really relaxed, and very talkative as I remember, lol. The surgery lasted 3 hours and everything went well. My best friend and sister were there for support.  

This week I have been in recovery, and basically sleeping most of time. My sleeping schedule is off though, which is why I am blogging so late.

Man! Thyroid gland removal! I'm glad all went well. I, myself have had more than my share of run ins with the scalpel. But yeah, the "happy juice" almost compensates for the inconvenience. Especially when one is a recovering alcoholic/substance abuser (23 + years). I've gotta get it where I can! Take care Caslon! Love the new background you've redecorated your page with!

Caslon,

Timing doesn't matter - your body is trying to help the bast way it can.  If that means sleeping at weird times, then that is what happens.  The best thing is to make sure you get  some rest.  I just hope it wasn't too much of a strain just typing that! :O

Hope you are doing good.

I got mine removed in '05 due to thyroid cancer. Did you have that or was it a goiter?
