How long is recovery after thyroid surgery? I had a total thyroidectomy 3 weeks ago and am not quite 100% yet. I was told by my surgeon to return to work after 2 weeks, which I have done but I can not make it through a day of work. How long does recovery take? |

Doctor had told me a few weeks. Well a few weeks i was at 30% of were i was before the surgery. took about 2 months before i really got most of my voice back and increased energy levels. I had my entire Thyroid removed and it has been almost a year and i am just getting back my MoJo. It takes several months for your voice to get back to were it was. i had stynosis of the tracea from the anastesia tube.. that is still not 100% yet but i can now function throughout my day without any major slow downs.I would say that after a year and finally regulating my Synthroid intake you should be at 90% like me. But i am cancer free. and as i look back at a difficult year as far as energy and fatigue it was worth it. Good luck. Stay on top of your synthroid and blood work.
