No problem, I hope I helped. It is very hard to stay calm through all of this. When I went for my preop with my surgeon he could tell how bad I was doing with the news of having cancer. After telling me about the operation he brought me a prescription for an anxiety drug and told me to go home, take two, and take a long nap. He even told me to take one the morning of my thyriodectomy. It was a life saver!! I still take one now and then, but it has gotten alot better since I am on my regular thyroid meds.
