I just had the second third of the other side of my tongue removed. It happened so quickly - diagnosed one week and then surgery the next -and also the neck dissection. It's been a few weeks since surgery and I just can't get my energy back. I work in a call center only after a few months of being bumped out of twenty years working at Citigroup. I am trying to remain positive but feel sad and so, so tired all the time. I'm going to get my blood and thyroid tested but who knows why I'm so exhausted. I only wish you the best in your next endeavor. It seems that each person has wonderful underlying strengths that they didn't know were there. Let me know if you'd ever like to talk..
