    Thyroidectomy

    Thank you satindoll and asparagusp. When I saw the endo yesterday he said my biopsy was not the "required result" so thinks it is best to remove nodules. They did light up on a pet scan so I guess they need to come out. Can you recall satindoll, the recovery time? How long you were in...

I have no problem with eating rare steak. But my question is are mushrooms considered plant based for zero...
