Hello I recently found a lump in my throat which was scanned and a biopsy was taken which has resulted in an inconclusive result. I am now due to have the right side removed on the 19th November. I’m not to concerned about the operation but I am a little anxious about the ever rising cases of The COVID virus in Essex area where I am based. My mum has requested I keep the kids of school throughout November just to be safe. They are all due to start back tomorrow. Please can you give me your thoughts. 
kind regards

  • Hey Kat,

    welcome to the group! I think it’s always better to be safe than sorry and if keeping your kids off school reduces the chances of catching it then that’s a good option. As for the lump, it may just be benign! I really hope your results are good, let us know how you get on! My thyroidectomy surgery went very well, I was only 25 and fit and healthy so had no issues and no pain at all in recovery, only stiffness x
