feeling good after thyroidectomy
About Me: Female, 35, Edsion - NJ, member since Apr 2008
I am from New Jersey.  I am married, 35 no children. I have Poly Cystic Ovary Syndrome, and HAD Grave's Disease ( I was allergic to the hyperthyroid medication), had stomach problems and gained almost 20 pounds since taking PTU and Tapazole. I had a total thyroidectomy... [More] on July 31, 2008 and feel good.  I didn't do the RAI because I want to try and have kids in the next year.  Even though I was in remission from the Grave's I elected to have the thyroid out because if I get pregnant I didn't want it to come back. I never want to be that sick again! NEVER EVER! So I am excited about getting on with my life and hopefully becoming a Mommy. [Less]
Interests: Music, reading and dancing, laughing, grave's disease

Hey! I am so glad that your surgery went so well and there was no cancer. Now you can get on with your life and hopefully start to feel better!! No baby news. I tried the fertility drugs/shots last month but no success. We are going to do one month on and one month on and so on. So we'll see what happens. I have an appointment with my endo next week and am anxious to see how my levels are. I feel pretty good. I started school again yesterday! I cannot believe summer is over already and its back to teaching! When do you start back? Any plans this weekend for Labor Day? We are just getting together with friends and hopefully swimming in our pool if its warm enough! Take care-talk to you soon!
