The feeding tube is gone. Eating is harder than I remember it being.
There's one spot in my throat that's still got an opening that's not supposed to be there. I suspect I have another surgery coming. This one will be very minor - just a staple or 2 to close up an opening from my throat to the area of the main surgery.
Next appointment is a week from today. I'll find out then what's happening next. Radiation doesn't start until everything from the surgery is healed, and that's taking a bit longer than was expected before the surgery.
Doc is really confident he found the source in my thyroid and removed it. He even drew a picture showing how the thyroid is involved with everything that's causing me problems after the surgery.
Now that I can finally get up and get around, It looks like I'm gonna need some skis to get any exercise.
