Does anyone know the typical hospital stay, after surgery for thyroid caner?
I also was recently diagnoised with lupus anticoagulant symdrone.

Hi there - I had my thyroid completely removed in January of this year and was released from hospital the day after surgery. I am in the UK and from what I can tell this is pretty normal. Of course, resting up afterwards for a week or 2 is recommended but unless there are complications in surgery there's no real need to be kept in for longer...good luck!
