Hiya BCR

I had a thymectomy back in 2003, I was down for about 6 weeks, and all went very well. I think I was quite lucky in that respect. I think the thing I found hardest was the pain, and dealing with that along with the mg with things like getting out of bed, and other general self care things, I was 32 at the time.
I was terrified of the surgery, I had only just been diagnosed with this awful disease, and the surgery on top of that didn't help, but as I said all went well, and I'm glad I had it. I do wonder what I would be like if I didn't have it?!?!?!?
Feel free to ask as many questions as you like, and if you want to email me to just talk or question me let me know and I'll put my email up for you(I dont leave it on my profile all the time)
