Hi All
I am a 40 year old male who recently had an operation for papillary thyroid cancer that had spread to my lymph nodes in my chest so i needed a sternotomy also. The operation was a success and i am recovering well physically but i am just so depressed and anxious in the last few days.
WHen i arrived home first i was doing well but not as i improvie physically i find my mental state very poor. I am on anti depressants for a few years anyway so this is my character but its so difficult to just see the wood from the trees and be glad that i had successfull treatment and my prognosis is very good.
Im not sleeping well and not eating great either, i had a 9 hour operation so maybe im still affected by that but i want to get some sleeping aids from the doctor to help but of course im afraid of taking those
Can anyone help me
