Bruce, I am glad to hear you are on the loose again. Concerning the Thyroid, I don't know what the issue you are having with it, but don't rush into surgery. I also have a lump on my thyroid and was given a choice of having surgery, just living with it which is not too good or Taking a thyroid hormone to keep the lump from growing and have been doing this for over 2 decades. I will be on the Armour thyroid the rest of my life, but to me that was preferable to having surgery and I go in once a year for my annual choking session (as I call it as the doc has to really squeeze my throat to check on it. The choking is a joke only as he has to squeeze on the thyroid to feel the lump.
Check with your endocrinologist to see if that may be an option to consider. Well, I wish you well and my prayers will be with you about this. Dan Eyk Daniel Eyk Vancouver, Wa.

If by chance you do have to have the thyroid surgery and end up with a scar on your throat I will buy you a couple of turtle neck shirts. There is makeup that will cover a lot of things and you might look good wearing an ascot. Unless you are planning to audition for a position as a Chippendale dancer you should not be concerned about this issue.
