I found a lump on my neck one day and I was very worried that it was a tumor or something. So I went in to get it checked out. My Doctor ran some tests and it came back as a nodule on my thyroid that needed to be removed.A month or so later I had surgery to have it removed and half of my thyroid. I didn't know it then but I guess Thyroid problems run in my family. (Yippee!) But everything went wonderful and now all I have to do is take a small pill every morning.
I had to go back in a few days later to get half the stitches removed. It felt so strange when the nurse was cutting the thread and pulled it out.
This is what my scar looks like today. I was so worried when my doctor told me how big the incision was going to be but I am very happy that you can barely see it now.
