Question for all

[Victoria1954]

I had my complete thyroid removed last Thursday.  My surgeon and endocrinologist already had me taking huge doses of Vitamin D and calcium to prepare my body for surgery. They were in agreement the 2.0 cm nodule was most likely cancerous.  On Saturday, I started on Synthroid.  By Saturday afternoon I was feeling better than I had in months.  Today (Monday), I returned to work part time and have felt wonderful.  I go back on the 18th to get the results from the pathologist and upcoming treatment which sill include the radioactive iodine pill.  I was just wondering, is this normal?  To feel so good so fast doesn't seem possible.
Thanks!

Yes it is possible. I went back to work full time 10 days after my surgery & have not stopped since. That was almost 17yrs ago.

Thanks, Sass.  It is amazing what a number the thyroid can do on you.  I have felt horrible for months and had no idea why.  Hopefully, it will continue, but I'm cautiously optimistic.
