Surgery Update

I had my thyroid surgery last Tuesday, almost one week ago. My surgeon is amazing, and in the end I won't have a huge scar. The incision is about 3 inches across the base of my neck, but it's very thin and should just fade into the crease that's there, once the swelling goes down.

I'm feeling pretty good, really, really tired most of the time and I go back and forth from sweating hot to freezing cold. I'm still getting over the strep throat infection that I had before the surgery and now I have the boys' cold, so that isn't very helpful. My pain is minimal and I can still take care of my boys when they are not at the day home.

Thanx for all of the good wishes, I think they are making the recovery go well.
