This is a video posted two year after my most recent video that describes updates to my health post thyroid surgery. It includes brief information on scar care, Synthroid, calcium, weight changes, energy levels, pregnancy, and lab draws.

Thank you for sharing this. I am. Going through this now. It's very scary. Everyone in my life are medical professionals and state "just do it", yet there were lots of questions and diagnostic stuff still happening.
I too am trying to get pregnant and was worried about conception and breast feeding while on Synthroid.
I am tired of hearing the medical view, the overtly happy view. You provided a real life, not so scary, not overly medical gaze.
Thank you so very much. I had mental health issues prior to the thyroid diagnoses, and finding out the severity of my situation: my mental health and catastrophic thinking: it just ballooned.
I am watching your videos to try and calm me with your priceless lived experience.
Health care in Canada is ok, but can be scary or very crappy when in a remote rural area.
I pray my post surgery results are as successful as yours. You really have me hope which is something no one has been able to gift me this past year as diagnosis developed and evolved.
No amount of thanks can be given.
❤
Your kind words have made my day, it makes me so happy to help!
I was diagnosed with Graves disease in 2021. Was starting to think I couldn't have kids just because it hadn't happened yet lol. Then we had a surprise pregnancy, found out while I was at the ER for a burst ovarian cyst. Miscarried at 10 weeks, blighted ovum due to Grave's, this past Sept. My endocrinologist said to definitely not try again until after definitive treatment, so I've been considering TT.
You have no idea how encouraging it felt to play this video and see you holding that baby. I just burst into tears because it's like a glimpse into what my future could be. Our due date was supposed to be 04/24/24, so its been really tough lately. Thank you so much for sharing your experience. 🥹❤
oh, your story makes me tear up as well. I'm so sorry. I'm sending you lots of love. I'm so happy you have found some comfort here.
Hi Rachel, thanks for your videos. They were really helpful before and after the surgery. I'm in week two after surgery💪
Thank you! Your videos are very well done and quite informative. My surgery is Monday and I am anxious of course! Thanks for reassuring that life does get back to normal. Congratulations on your babies. You look very happy. 🙏🏽
This video is such a relief, I’m still waiting to find out if the suspicious nodule they found on me is going to require surgery. I totally flipped out at first but I think I’m more mentally prepared now.
My doctor told me to get thyroid surgery as i got malignant nodules in my thyroid, I was so afraid for the future after surgery, but after looking at you, I feel much better! Also, I'm trying to think that if i don't, remove it will be worse for my health to leave something thats malignant... I'm so glad that you share your experience 💗
Thank you for your videos! They give me comfort as i face my surgery next week! God bless you and your family!
Thank you for this video. I had a TT 6 weeks ago. I get upset at times wondering what it means for my body and life with no thyroid this video gives me so much hope for the future.
Thank you for taking the time to make your videos. They are so helpful. Searching the internet for positive outcomes for thyroidectomies is all but impossible. It has been so disheartening. I have a large toxic/ hot nodule on the right side. And I have decided to have it removed, a partial thyroidectomy. I cannot continue with the hyper symptoms, ( hair loss, palpitations, tremor, swelling, voice changes and food getting stuck.) UGH! My nodule is tirads 5, and even though it is hormone producing, they say the cancer risk is very low. But to me, the risk of cancer is real. I just want it gone. My biggest concern is making my health worse, as well as weight gain. For a hyper patient, I am very much overweight. I really wish I had gotten the weight loss symptom. I am trying to learn to be ok with the thought of gaining weight. It's hard though. Sorry this was a bit of a ramble. But thanks again, I truly appreciate you. Very happy to learn you were able to have the family you wanted. I love that. I will be a first time Grandma in June.
You never know, you may actually find that once your thyroid levels are "normalized" that you actually do not gain weight! Best of luck to you
😊 dnt worry, it was scary at first, I too had my right lobe removed two months ago due to cancer. But things doesn't turn out to be that horrible as anticipated. Just be calm and follow healthy diet. Brazil nuts helped me a lot. Weight gain hair loss etc are just hypes. I havnt gain weight and hair loss can be managed. Just stay positive, thyroid problem is not beyond our control. Good luck
First time viewing your vedios, very interesting and informative.
Hi💕💕💖💖 thank you so much for sharing your experience 💕 it helped me so much
This is absolutely amazing! Thank you for these very informative videos.
I had thyriod removed just over 2 months ago. I regret it. My recovery is slow . Still don't have my voice back . Got no apatite. No energy. Loosing weight rapidly.
Good luck to you, I hope in time your thyroid levels will regulate and you feel much better!
I also lost my voice after thyroid surgery last year. My left vocal cord was paralyzed but good thing it came back after 3 months.
How are you doing now Bonnie? ❤
Hi very informative video i take syntroid 137 mcg but im not feeling my best lately i was doing much better a few months back on 150 mcg may i ask what is your actual dose and have you tried another brand other than syntriod? I will much appriciate your answer Thanks!
Thank you
Great to know that your are doing just fine! Can I ask if your diet can assist with providing sufficient calcium for your body as oppose to relying on calcium supplements?
My understanding is that it's pretty hard to get the necessary calcium needed from food alone (but wouldn't that be ideal!!?). Best to talk about with your provider.
I’m facing a total thyroidectomy soon. It sounds vain but I’m very worried about gaining weight. I am very active and work out often but at almost 50 it’s definitely been harder to lose weight - with a functioning thyroid! Did you find this an issue? Thank you!
Hi! I had a very positive experience. My metabolism finally corrected itself. I have a video that talks about it a little bit here and a few more follow up videos you might find interesting :) ruclips.net/video/kMfT2rQklJM/видео.html
How’s your Trab/tsi level after total thyroidectomy? Did it become undetectable?
I also had right thyroid surgery in 2023, and now I am in distress because the scar remains.😢
I am still using scar removal medicine like Hiruscar or Bio Oil. Can the scar be completely removed? Btw I am 19 years old.
I made a little video on caring for your scar that may help! ruclips.net/video/GdrBNpcaLhM/видео.html
Did you have to do RAI also? If yes any tips and trick going thru this, thank u so much
I did not need to do this, sorry I can't help more!
Nothing to worry
Drink lots of water
4 to 5 litres
Try to take some lemon or orange candy
