We had a total thyroid removal operation on Aug 30, 2022. It was a MIVAT surgery with nerve monitoring system. In theory, the chance of damaging the nerve is very low (5%). But, my wife’s nerve is still damaged. As a result, her vocal cord has been paralyzed until now. The operation doctor said their hospital has no way to examine the nerve or the vocal cord. The only way is to wait. We feel the doctor or the hospital could have been more proactive to follow up and help their patients.
During the stay at the hospital, the nurses were really friendly. This is a positive point.
