I spoke with Wendy at U of M this morning. Point C is a little closer than I thought. Dr. G (the surgeon I really, really wanted) had a cancellation, and she can get me in for a consult on August 9. Hooray!
Oh wait. That means my surgery is the week of August 15.
I was a bit apprehensive at first…I had settled in at Point B and was ready to park it for awhile. But let’s just get this thing over with so I can move on with the rest of my life!
I am choosing to believe that this surgery will be no big deal at all. Dr. G has all of the latest robotic surgical equipment at his fingertips, and does nothing but thyroids all day. Mine will be totally routine to him. My recovery time will be 1-2 weeks, and I’m not going to have any complications. The pathology report will match all of our presumptions thus far.
Point C, here I come!
