Guest guest Posted November 11, 2006 Report Share Posted November 11, 2006 Hi , I had a large growing nodule on my thyroid gland. Two doctors recommended the total thyroidectomy (tt). A week after the surgery I found out the nodule was full of cancer. If they had only taken half my gland out, it would have meant frequent whole body scans which require being off thyroid med. Didn't want to go through that. Now I just get a yearly scan. The surgery and it's side effects did effect my fibro, too.
