I'm nervous. I couldn't sleep at all last night. I really didn't think I would be this nervous. Let's face it, the surgeon isn't going to surprise me with any big, scary news today. I already know that I could possibly have cancer. I have resigned myself to the fact that I am most likely going to have some form of thyroidectomy, whether it be a total or partial removal. Basically I see today as a fact finding mission. I need the particulars. Full or partial? How long will I be in the hospital? How long before I can return to work? When will I know if I have cancer? blah blah blah (Trust me, you don't want to see my whole list of questions. The surgeon is probably going to bill me for overtime today!)
But still, I am nervous. I think that just confronting the issue...getting confirmation on my assumptions....is what is making me nervous.
It's going to be a long day..........
