It's about 1:23 pm on Sunday the 9th of June 2013.
I had surgery three days ago to completely remove my thyroid. My surgeon, Dr. Stang, said that it was four times larger than normal thyroids and that he had to cut into my chest and that it also was higher and farther spread out than usual. That could explain why I'm in so much pain.
Everyone around me had been pushing for me to have my thyroid either removed or treated with radioactive iodine for awhile. People made me think that I'd have surgery and then everything would be peachy keen, jelly bean. Well, things are not at all peachy, nor are they keen.
