Yes: If you were taking a thyroid supplement before the surgery and now you are not and your thyroid is out....Then yes this is totally normal. Your surgeon may be preparing your for further treatment to erradicate the rest of the thyroid in a few weeks. Was your whole thyroid removed? Or only half?
