If any discomfort occurs, call the nurse. Do NOT hesitate. I had my surgery almost 20 years ago. I went from feeling great to a little funky to I couldn't breathe within less than 2 minutes. I ended up with a 2nd emergency surgery. Do not hesitate if you feel bad or off in any way. And whether you are having a partial or complete thyroidectomy you should insist on staying over night. It's very rare for something to happen but I'm proof that it can. It's better to be prepared.
Thank you so much. I’m having this procedure very soon. This was the biggest help so far. I know it’s been a couple of years for you but this video is still benefiting people. Hope you’re well.
how’d it go!
@@redacted-oo7ne It went well. Thanks. It was a long surgery. It took five hours to get the entire tumor out. My voice is still not quite back to normal but I’m so glad that I can speak.
Having this surgery in 4 days, super nervous but definitely helps to have an idea of what to expect!
@tifftiff681 how did your surgery go
@@joannarobinson4625 it went well thank you for asking! :)
@@stevestokes-li8xrhow r u now? My one ll be on 4th of Oct. Very scared. And why u remove ur thyroid?
@@stevestokes-li8xr I hope your surgery goes smoothly!
@@aliyahossaini8772hi may i ask how did your surgery go?
I had my thyroid removed 18 years ago and they didn't do any of this for me. I'm glad you're experience was so much better
What is it like to live without a tgyroid
@@teraparker3968 Good question; sound like is very common Drs are taking thyroid out and is something that we are not aware until you are in the situation… I have a friend who got it removed 8 years ago, now is my thyroid giving me the most horrible time of my life; and not knowing what is wrong with me at all. Praying for all of us.
@@teraparker3968 You have to constantly remember to take that pill before you do anything else every day, and when you forget it's like a panic situation and you have to calm yourself down and remind yourself you're doing the best you can, and you have to constantly go back to the damn endocrinologist all the time after blood tests (fasting ones!) to be reevaluated and it absolutely sucks
im so scared im only 19 and im having this surgery soon but this video helped me 😭
I am having this procedure soon due to goiter and non aggressive cancer in one nodule. Very nervous but this video made me feel a lot better! I cannot thank you enough! Hope you are continuing to do well.
Hi Rachel. I REEEAALLLYY appreciate your video. It was the first REAL video of the surgery and it was totally helpful and reassuring. I actually have a goiter 11cm so it really has affected a lot of things in my body. It’s so big that it’s pushing my trachea. So I have all the symptoms: hard time swallowing, breathing is not that bad. But I notice it’s compressing some nerves cause the pains I’m getting in my arm, chest, and legs. Pretty much the right side. I have my surgery the ending of July but I don’t know if I’m able to wait that long, but I’m afraid that’s the earliest the doctor got! But hopefully my surgery goes smoothly and hope that my body can hold on longer til I get the surgery. And I have low tolerance for pain, so what you described I hope is not as bad. 😳😢 but thank you for the detailed experience because it makes me feel a little more at ease for when I get mine. 😊😊
Such a great thorough report. Thank you so much. I hope you went well a few weeks/months post surgery
This is a perfect explanation of how this process will go. I’m up for surgery pretty soon.
Great!i just happened to find your youtube channel.
I had an thyroidectomy on Aug.3 ,2023.
And im very happy to follow you.
⚘...thank you for this video. Even now, 3yr later, I can share your story to my niece who would get the same surgery next week. I was really touched what you all had to do before the surgery, and of what you were going through. I wish you are okay now. Greetings from Holland.⚘
Thanks again. Your review of your hospital experience was very useful. I’m 77 and except for eye surgeries have never been under the knife or had any hospital stay. Obviously, I’m a little apprehensive. Your review was very helpful. Thanks again
Excellent tutorial! Thanks for sharing! 🌹
Thank you for such a concise, informative video.
Right now, I'm going through the biopsies & ultrasounds every 6 months (so far, non cancerous, but large), & I just wanted to know more about down the line.
I learned a lot.
Again, thank you & I wish you continued success in your new normal.
Survivor here best of luck wishing u healing
Thank you so much for taking the time to share this information with others .I know it will help me as well as many others 😊God bless
Now THIS is an INFORMATIVE video!
Perfect, thank you.
Really ? Said nothing about after 15 hours
What happens when you go home or a week or 2 later
Any food changes, mood, voice changes?
I was left wondering- already know the nurses check on you.
Very informative im up for surgery in 3weeks getting my whole part out its non cancerous 😊 watching this video help me out im not as nervous as i were at first 🙏🏿
Thanks for this. Just found out today that I need a complete Thyroidectomy. Your video is extremely helpful. 💜
Thank you for sharing your experience. I am having this surgery on Tuesday. You helped me prepare.
Thank you Rachel. I am enjoying your videos so much. I have having a Thyroidectomy in 2 months. I have had 3 nodules for several years. Now I have 4. I get an ultrasound and fine needle aspiration done every year. The nodules are benign but 3 of them have grown to 4 cm. When they are this large. They can cause problems with your windpipe. So my endocrinologist said its time to remove half or all of my thyroid. I am 67 and I choose to have the entire Thyroid removed. I don't want to remove half and then have to have another surgery later on when I am older. This is my first major surgery and my first time under anesthesia. All the information you are sharing is very helpful. I appreciate it so much. I hope you are doing great. 😊
@cowlectorperkins, Thank you for sharing knowing in 2 months you will have both removed. Pls do update us as my situation is the same with you. Thank you again
@@mariachua3780 today is 3 weeks since I had my total thyroidectomy. My recovery has gone quite well. I didnt have to stay in the hospital and I didnt come home with a drain. The first week I was pretty out of it and had to take pain medication. I basically slept for the first 3 days. I did not lose my voice. My husband took wonderful care of me. I kept the talking down to a minimum for a few days. By the end of the second week, I was only taking Ibuprophen.
I slept on a Wedge pillow with a memory foam pillow on top of it for 2 weeks. I highly recommend a Wedge pillow. The Wedge pillow felt too hard so I added my memory foam pillow and it was perfect.
I have been putting "Aquafor" ointment on my incision twice a day. It was recommended by my surgeon. Luckily, the incision hasn't itched...yet. I am pretty much back to normal but I don't lift heavy things yet.
I have had more acid reflux than ever. I am consulting with my Dr. about that. Good luck to you with everything. 😊
Hi, curious, how did it go?
@@TheCJN702 it all went well. The surgery went well. Pathology tests came back great....no cancer. My recovery went well. My Endocrinologist has changed the dosage of my Levothyroxine from 112mcg to 100 mcg to 88 mcg. I do labwork the end of May to see how 88mcg is working. One thing I have noticed since my complete thyroid surgery is I feel cold alot more. My Endocrinologist said this is common and for some folks it goes away after 6 months or so and some people have it the rest of their lives. I hope it goes away. Thank you for asking. I hope you are doing well too.
Thank you… you covered everything I feel I know what to do and expect.
Thank you this was very helpful!
Thank you, well done, much appreciated
I love the cake idea!!!! Love your video
Im having this procedure a week from today. Thank you for making these videos.
Good luck to you and thank you for the kind words!
Thank you for the information I am having this procedure in two months Nervous
Thanks...I am scheduled for surgery January 19th 2023...this information was very helpful
Thank you for this video
I’ll be doing this surgery 😊
Very, very informative , Thanks for these tips . Hope your healing well . I go in to the V.A. hospital on 02-28-22 for a total Thyroidectomy . They canceled my surgery twice because of Covid at the facility . Keeping my fingers crossed this time .
Thanks so much .

Thank you for sharing your experience.. 🙏
Thanks for your reply.Take care .
Thank you so much. I'm having mine done this morning
Very helpful!!! Thank you!!!
I know I have to go for a CT scan soon on Sunday and I’m very nervous not scared but nervous and not sure what the outcome would be but your video has made me feel much better. Thank you so much for sharing. What happened to you? It will help somebody and is helping me. Thank you.
I’m so glad I found your video. My surgery is scheduled for Sept 27( if the hurricane doesn’t hit us, I live in Florida lol). You gave a very detailed list and I appreciate that so much. I also loved that you stressed “ advocating for yourself “ and getting your needs met. Even though I’m a retired nurse after 40 yrs I tend to not want to bother the nurses. I never tell anyone I’m a nurse cuz nurses get a bad wrap about not being great patients lol. I’ve never been the type to think I know it all. There’s no way a nurse can know everything. I was an OB/GYN so I’m pretty clueless about thyroid surgery. But not I feel more educated and better prepared so I thank you for this!
I understand, I'm a nurse too! Thank you for the kind comments and good luck to you, I'm hoping FL does okay through this terrifying hurricane.
@@thehappyartichoke3012 I am scheduled to have thyroid surgery in December, how soon can I go back to work, after the surgery?
@@WWAHP I needed more than two weeks, but I suppose it depends on the type of work you do!
thankyou for this video i need to make appointment for the op next week i feel so nervous but i trust God for the successful operation..
Best of luck to you!
You're the best!!! ❤
thanks alot am about to do it after a week these helps alot
Thank you so much your matter of fastness helps it all just be taken in without being scary.
I had the fine needle aspiration biopsies done 2 days ago; 4 pokes in the right side nodule, 4 pokes in the left side nodule ... the left side nodule is solid with calcifications which is not a good sign. Waiting for results is not easy. If malignant, I will most likely have the same procedure as you, so thanks for sharing!
The 2nd biopsy report was “consistent with a benign follicular neoplasm.” The endocrinologist emailed that it should be checked again by ultrasound in 6 months in case of a false negative cytology.
I’m getting the large needle aspiration soon on a lump on the left side of my neck. Also a face scan for a nodule found inside my nose. Did they remove your goiter or drain your swollen area? Thanks any information is appreciated
Thank you SO much for your thyroid surgery videos! I'm supposed to be having one gland removed soon, but I'm in my 70s and live alone, so I need plenty of information on how to plan for this! I think I've watched all of your videos once, but now I want to watch again, taking notes, and making my plans this time.
Thank you again for this amazing gift of knowledge!
@@annasbandit My 65 yr old wife had hers removed Monday morning (9-18-23)....Drain tube will be removed Friday....Saturday, nephew's wedding. Seems fine.
I'm reallly worried about recovery at home since I'm a widow. Can someone help me arranging for post surgical help?
@@marilynschiffman7794 You may need a ride home from the hospital but once you're inside you'll be ok....take the pain meds if you wish...my wife only took them one day and was pretty comfortable after that.
@@marilynschiffman7794Ask your health insurance co.. verify if the insurance have this type of program to accommodate your needs…
I wish I would have seen her videos prior to my surgery my experience was so totally un explained by my Doctor I had a panic attack afterwards and I feel so much resentment about the whole procedure please folks be prepared
So thankful for your videos. I’m having surgery on the 18th of this month. I feel good about it… a little nervous. Do you know how long your surgery took?
I am to have a sonogram on monday to see 2 shadows that appeared on a Ct scan. I had vertigo and swollen lymph node in left ear. Not sure if all is related. It seems not everyone has same symptoms. We shall see what comes from this. I'm nervous about it bc im about to start a new job and would have different insurance, and being out work, etc. All this came up at the worst time. Pls pray for a good outcome 🙏. Thank you for the video and all the shares. It makes me feel im not alone.
I had mjne removed 16 years ago. They didn't give my anything prep. calcium, iodine or body wash nothing. This was done at Johns Hopkins in Maryland.
Maybe because it was so long ago. 🙄
I had absolutely NO PAIN AT ALL, EVER... I had a one night stay.
They woke me every hour checking my calcium levels by pinching my cheeks and chin area. If your calcium level is too low, your face would feel numb.
Other than all that it was a piece of cake.
Only thing that hurt was taking out two or three stitches.
She yanked them out like a beast. Pretty heartless. I supposed to rest was glued. Lol Not all Operations are the same. It was the easiest operation Ive ever gone through. Only took pain med one time after surgery.
Magbe a for a year my throat felt very Tight I could feel every time I swallowed.
Used a good skin cream moisturizer on the incision after the redness was gone. I used it for months. I hardly have a scar at all. But it's important to keep it moist....👍
I am getting ready to go through all of this tomorrow is my x-ray day.
Very informative. I had my total thyroidectomy end of Jan of '24. Everything went fine. Lab work was great. I had a multi nodular goiter which was about 8 cm in length. Its difficult to describe the pain. It just hurt. I only took Tylenol and 2 Tramadol ( 1 post op day and first evening I was home to just take the edge off which helped). I also have an allergy to adhesive so the surgeon use the Deramond (a glue to cover incision). A little over a week post op I began having a slight reaction to the Deramond with blisters and itchiness. It then worsened. My PCP recommended Zyrtec 3x a day and adding Benadryl which somewhat helped but at day 12 post op the blisters were popping though the Derambond and the antihistamines were unable to control the itching and the Deramond was removed 14 days post op. At 16 days post op from blisters formed and in addition to previous blisters now weeping. Still some minimal weeping and itchiness. Now slowly healing.
Thank you for this video, even though this was 3 years ago. I was called today by my endocrinologist and she told me it wasn't good news and I knew right then what it was about, my first two FNA's came back inconclusive, but they sent in a different sample I was told and this came back positive for cancer. I have a very small cancerous nodule on my right side of my thyroid and she told me they used to take out the whole thyroid, but in 2015 they changed the guidelines and now they only remove half. I requested a biopsy for the left side of my thyroid as I have 2 very small modules, they never biopsied the left side so I requested they do that. She told me she's going to put in a referral to the surgeon and that she'll let me know from there what day and time I'll be scheduled. I'm very nervous because I really don't want the whole thyroid taken out, but of course if it needs to be done I want that. I'm also going to ask if they're going to test the lymph nodes in my neck while they're in there. I'm worried about gaining weight as I know the thyroid is a big part of that. I don't do well with anesthesia so that's another thing I'm concerned about. My cousin is an RN and she said she's going to come take care of me after surgery, so that's a good thing as I have a small dog who needs to be walked, fed etc. I feel like crying but that won't help anything. I have faith in God that he will watch over me. ✝️🙏💜
How’d it go?
How did it go, how are you??
Thinking of you, even strangers care 💜💜💜
@@TheCJN702 Oh thank you so much for asking! I had the Thyroidectomy on November 28th. I was supposed to go home that night but unfortunately I woke up in recovery with non stop nausea and vomiting for 5 days and had to stay in the hospital! I had a drain that stayed in for a week after I was able to come home. It's definitely been a journey! I feel ok now, just trying to get used to having to take Levothyroxine everyday. 🫣😌🤷🏻♀️
@purplehearts3287 thank God you got through it though, you were worried about quite a few things. Glad to hear you are ok. I wish you all the very best 💜💜💜
@@TheCJN702 Thank you! I hope everything is going well for you too! 💜

Getting mine removed Tuesday due to nodules - nervous but this was very helpful. Thank you!!
Hi, just curious how you're doing now? I'm thinking about getting the surgery due to nodules. Thx
@@starygurl821 Hey! I got cold feet SUPER last minute and canceled. Trying to figure out a new date, but still admittedly nervous about it.
Hi this was very helpful video, I have got to have both my thyroid glands removed as it's extremely likely that I have cancer in the one that has the lump. I'm worried, anxious. 😢
Thank you for your information am having this surgery 2/2024
Thank you
Thank for these video quite likely that I will have to have my thyroids removed so this had help a lot with what might go on,.
Thank you! I will have my procedure in two weeks.
@thehappyartichoke hi! I’m having this surgery April 2024 and scared of the post op pain. How long did you need IV pain meds for? How many days did you need pain meds? I realize everyone is different with pain tolerance but I don’t do well with pain. Thanks for any advice.
Hope you are doing well these days 💐
I am! Thank you!
@@thehappyartichoke3012 ❤️💐
Great information thank you so much. Note book is a great idea because it can get overwhelming. I might have to get surgery. Just waiting for my biopsy results.
1. Are you taking hormone medication and how has it affected you day to day.
2. How is your weight doing did you gain/ lose?
3. How is your energy?
What was ur biopsy result?
Had mine removed around 16 years ago or just under . My head felt heavy I've need to lift it with my hands . Other than that I was good to get around . I was on calci chews for tingles in my back etc calcium drop . Mostly on pain relief headaches etc . But soon got through it ..... last few weeks I've been very tired /fatigued . Not sire if thyroid related. Git bloods again Monday . So I'll go from there . We'll done . Mine was fully removed inc the cist.
Thanks for this video, I found out two days ago that I have thyroid cancer. I’m supposed to be having surgery towards the end of the month
Hi.what was ur symptoms?
❤Thank you so much
I’m going tomorrow to see surgeon regarding hypothyroidism and thyroid surgery, super nervous atm!
I have been through it. Stage 3 breast cancer, 2 open hearts (fixing genetic defect), 2 total knee replacements... And this is where I learn why they woke me at 2 am every dang day for blood!!! They would never, and believe me I asked, tell me what was going on. I am a very hard stick and it would take 20 to 30 minutes every dang night. Thank you!!! It is good to know they weren't just being jerks. Now I finally know. Oh, and losing my thyroid next month. They want to go through the mouth. Not sure I am sold yet.
Sending you lots of prayers!!! ❤
Thank you so much I am also having surgery as I have an enlarged Thyroid. I have made notes so I can be prepared for the op. I have a question can one talk after surgery.
Hello. I will be getting my thyroid removed pretty soon. My main thing I'm nervous about is will you have a risk of losing your voice afterwards, or will it just be hoarse and sore?? Thanks!!! And thanks for all the helpful advice.
Don't worry...my voice changed but everything turned out fine.
Thank they want to do surgery thanks so much
Thank you for your informative comments. I am having a thyroid ectomy tomorrow waiting for the phone call today for my surgery time I’m 67 and live alone so a little worried about my postop recovery time. My surgeon does only same-day surgeries so your information was very helpful. I am a note takerand bring my notebook with me wherever I go. Thank you.
My husband died this year so I'm going to be alone after surgery. I'd really like suggestoins as to how I should prepare.
@user how are you doing after your surgery?hope all is well with you. Maybe you can update us here the day of your surgeries and post surgery? thanks you again..
Hello
Thank you for all the helpful info. How is life after thyroid removal. Medication, weight balance, hair loss? I have read so much about it. My is enlarged and waiting for second lab results. Bcz one came back abnormal. Can you please give me an insight of your journey. Thank you so much.
I hope you are doing better, I also have an enlarged one on one side. Did they remove yours? Any information is appreciated. Thanks
What kind of surgery did you have regarding your thyroid ? I’m having a procedure in 3 weeks I’m terrified but really appreciated your video
I had a full thyroidectomy! You might find some of my post procedure videos helpful :) Good luck!
Ty for this I’m having mine done in July 11,2023 and I’m scared
I am also having thyroid surgery on the same date. Praying for a successful surgery for both of us.
I had my total thyroid removed about 2 pm and went home at 5pm Had a salad to eat and just took some time to rest and ice my throat. No problem.
thanks! my wife goes in thursday.
Best of luck to her!
Thank you for this video it is very helpful. I am getting ready for the needle biopsy and surgery is the next step.
Me also. Nervous. Had a parathyroid removed in Tampa last June 9th. Now this, a large suspicious nodule. Hope yours goes as well as possible.
@@mamas3cubs I also have a large nodule. Large needle biopsy and face scan soon. I hope you get well soon.
@@furysactorslounge3956 how was having the biopsy???
@@mamas3cubs I’m having it done on the 12th I’ll let you know
@@mamas3cubs I know it can make you nervous but don’t worry.
You got this. Plus doctors do these operations all the time. Let me know how it goes. Just keep rolling with the punches I just want to have one year with no health problems.
I have large multi nodules on both sides. I am curious if you had any weight gain, depression, hair falling out?
Glad you are doing better. I’m a retired nurse and facing this surgery soon. I’m dreading it. I just don’t enjoy being the patient. Typical nurse.
Totally get it! You will do great.
Great advise. Can you get the steri strip bandages wet during your shower??
Yes, it's okay for them to get wet once you have been cleared to shower!
I know people said cold fluid is good. How about hot liquids? Like tomato soup?
I removed mine in full 22 years ago.
I had my thyroids removed on the 6th of December and todate my voice is still hourse. How long do you think it will take for my voice to return to normal.
I had thyroid surgery and your helpful insight helped me a lot to prepare for it mentally and physically.
Right before I went to surgery, I binged watched your videos and it helped me a lot to stay calm, prepare well.
I want to thank you for being us along your journey. This helped a lot and I’m sure it helped others. 💗
Thank you so much for your kind words and I am so, so happy that it was helpful for you!
@@thehappyartichoke3012 yes! Thank you for sharing your journey
What was your TI-RAD Score?
I have one question when you brought the few items with you or they secured in a locker to an area where you would be coming post-op?
❤
This was a very informative video. My question is if I'm not being too personal, why did you have to have your thyroid removed? The reason I ask is that I have "suspicious" and "highly suspicious" nodules - the highly suspicious nodule is causing me pain and my lymph nodes are swollen and I'm wondering if surgery is in my future. I haven't been to the doctor in a couple of years because I'm afraid of hearing what he may have to say. Thank you.
I was diagnosed with Graves disease, which is an autoimmune disease that causes your thyroid to just keep growing and growing! I'm sorry to hear about your nodules. I understand that it's scary to go see a doctor. I would encourage you to talk to someone now so you can think through your options, and feel free to get more than one opinion. Good luck!
Hi , I have a suspicious nodule a U3 it’s about. 5.4cm definitely go to the doctors I’ve had lots of blood tests and ultrasound and a biopsy waiting for my results now, but definitely worth going just to get it checked out.

Hi i'd like to ask, i was diagnosed with the same thing and i had removed the half of my thyroid. Did you take the radioactive therapy as well?
@@thehappyartichoke3012 after surgey what do u do followup plz tell me
Going to talk to the doctor this thursday about surgery. Did anyone have to stay a night at the hospital. What type of pain meds you get after surgery and then they sent you home. Im kinda scared about the pain. I dont take pain meds on a regular basis but I have a high tolerence with pain meds. Ever since my back surgery ive been like that. How long was you off work
This video talks about some of those things, and this one as well. Good luck!! th-cam.com/video/G0owQb6GprI/w-d-xo.html
After your surgery I mean at present do you feel any difficulty while eating food or medicines?
I have no problems at all with swallowing food or medicines.
I had this procedure done several years ago. Since thrn my body has never been the same. My body always hurts. Horrific muscle spasms. Weight goes up . I have no sugar. I eat healthy foods. It was truly horrible. I have been reading things that talk about natural foods that reduce nodules. I wish i would of explored natural remedies first. I wish i had a thyroid. It saddens me to have to deal with all the side effects of not having a thyroid.
I'm so very sorry it has been so difficult. Hindsight always makes everything clearer when we look at the decisions we've made, though I'm sure at the time it was the best you could do with what you knew!
Can u tell pls how u feel now years after surgery ?

Did you stay overnight in the hospital? Thanks
From what I know, for full thyroidectomy, you have to stay overnight as calcium level would have to be monitored after surgery.
I have hypothyroidism and I’m 22 , I’ve been thinking if I should get the surgery or not. Been trying for another baby with husband and it’s been hard since my thyroids are super high
Good luck to you. It's a big decision!
