In case you were curious as to the size of the incision required to remove a fist sized nodule and half a thyroid.
Initial biopsy and genetic testing were inconclusive, pathology should have more conclusive information by my follow up visit on Friday.
I am surprised at such a sudden deterioration in a woman whose only ailment was a lazy anus.
I truly hope all results for anything bad is negative.
Dayum man. But, I echo: I hope all tests for bad things comes back with a negative result.
Goodness! Lets hope for a positive outcome. That looks like it hurts.
Best wishes, thoughts and prayers your way from us all.
I hear the Colombian necktie is coming back in to style. Odds are good that it will be benign. Clocked on to this last August. Was running a course of antibiotics for a dental infection while on the call list for a root canal. Spent a day out on the water near Wayalusing as part of a MABAS strike team searching for a missing swimmer. End of the day I was in rough shape, infection had spread so I went in to urgent care to change antibiotic. On call doctor asked about the enlarged thyroid and convinced me to go get it checked out. Was my understanding that it was only a 5cm growth when I went in Friday to have it removed. Was shocked to come to in recovery and find out how large it really had been. Spent the night in the hospital flirting with cute nurses and watching movies. Home now resting. Have the week off work, but will probably go back in on Wednesday. Meanwhile, I'll ride over to Appleton tomorrow to inspect a new fire engine we have on the assembly line at Pierce and take advantage of things like Netflix and Amazon prime. Might even squeeze in a little ham radio.

Hope it turns out to be nothing. Speedy recovery.

Wishing you speedy recovery and keeping fingers crossed it is a negative result and you will be good as new again ;)

Thanks all. I'm sure it will be nothing but good news on Friday.

I'm hoping you're right on the good news, Tom! Take care of yourself, and heal quickly!Originally Posted by KC9ECI
I'm not showing my wife your photo because she will get ideas about doing that to me. However, the cut would be much longer, and stitches would not follow the cutting.
I do hope the test results show no further issues. I hope you get laid, too. Takes your mind off your troubles for awhile. At least I think I remember from way back that that is the case.
