Thyroid

[kronos]

Guys, my doc told me I have to have thyroid surgery (thyroidectomy) because of a nodule. I'm really worried about my bb/weighlifting future. Anyone out there who's had thyroid surgery/removal/problems? Experiences, thoughts...
I'll really appreciate your comments.
Thanks iron buddies!

Where do you live ? Exactly what has he told you ? I have a goiter which means an enlarged thyroid with five nodules on it. No need to operate on it unless it causes problems. I would get a second opinion if I was you

My doctor found a big, cold nodule, and a thyroglossal cyst, both of which have to go. I've visited three doctors, including a good endocrynologist, and all three agree that both things could eventually turn into thyroid cancer. So I have to have surgery.

I'm really worried about my bb/weightlifting surgery, as I'll have to be on synthroid after the surgery.

Thoughts anyone? Thanks!
