I'm a complete mess right now, so so emotional and I just can't get my head straight?! :cry:
I had mY thyroid removed along with lymph nodes around 3 weeks ago, and have since made a pretty quick recovery, I noticed quite early on I was getting emotional but figured it was stress of the cancer (got diagnosed officially beginning of jan) and the healing process and more Often than not I felt good.
anyway? I'm now due on my period at the end of this week and I don't know if my mood is that or something else, I've struggled in the past with mental health and I'm scared it's that as I always said if I wake up and cry it's a sign it's coming back, and honestly, I wake up and cry, I cry before bed, find myself crying an awful lot, and it's not like it's my mind telling me negative thoughts like before of being a waste of space etc it's more I can't cope with my symptoms anymore and I feel like it's hormonal rage (women you should all know that feeling) I'm cold all the time, thirsty all the time, my throat is sore I've got a ear ache today which set me off crying, it all sounds so stupid, my memory has completely packed up, I cooked tea for my Family the other day and forgot to cook the chips.. they kindly ate it and said they didn't mind but who forgets to cook half the dinner?!? I'm so fed up of the pins and needles and tremors and feel so tired and yet I just want to be able to sleep properly!!! Feel like I am losing my self In a way thats so different to mental health but i don't know, maybe it's the period coming and it will all pass, has anyone felt like this after their thyroid surgery? Is it because of my Thyroid levels maybe?!
Im so sorry but it felt quite nice to rant that out!!
I guess in reality I should be contacting my gp or consiltant but I hate to pester them when they are so strained as it is.
