I DID IT!! I'm home!

I did it, I'm home recovering.  Great surgeon!  Only about 3 in. across my neck.  It looks wonderful!  I forgot to ask how long it takes for the results from pathology, anyone know?  I had two nodules large in size but, different consistancies.  On hard, one soft.  

On;y a small drop in calcium, nothing tums couldn't take care of.  

I CAN BREATHE!!!!!!!!  It is such a relief! That alone is worth every second of this pain!  

Thanks for listening to me whine all month!  Hopefully I'll have good news from here on out!!!
Keep praying for me please!

Thank god!!!!! I am so happy for you. I go for my biopsy Monday - so just knowing how good you feel - is giving me the strength to plow through.

I am glad you had the forum to support you !!!

Having a successful surgery, no calcium drop and a small scar sounds like a winner to me - congratulations!  Breathing is a wonderful thing, keep it up.

Pathology was about 10 days.  The dr told me then it wasn't cancer but went over things in more detail during the first follow-up appt.

Take it easy and take care.

Congratulations on a successful surgery and easy recovery!  I hope it continues for you.

My TT is scheduled for 2 weeks from today, and my surgeon told me it would take 3 - 4 days for the pathology report to come back.  Of course, he also told me that about my biopsy results, and he called me 36 hours afterwards with those.  I doubt I'll be that lucky twice.   =)

I hope the report turns out well for you!

Sometimes it can take about a week on pathology.   I'm so glad that you are home and doing well!!

It's all uphill from here.

I had a tt three weeks ago on 2/5.  My pathology report was faxed to my surgeon on 2/7.  I didn't get the results though until my appointment with the surgeon on 2/13.  

I'm glad your surgery went without complications and that you can breathe!  Keep us posted on your path results.
