Nicole Martin is turning the tables these days \u2014 the doctor is the patient.<\/p>\n

The former \u201cReal Housewives of Miami\u201d star shared a selfie Instagram video tucked into bed, set to the Miley Cyrus inspirational song \u201cClimb.\u201d The anesthesiologist then pulls off her blanket to reveal a horizontal bandage across the bottom of her neck.<\/p>\n

The caption: \u201cOut of the office: Recovery mode ON … Not the spring break we envisioned, but happy to be home resting and recovery.\u201d Hashtags included #thyroidsurgery and #sendbookrecs.<\/p>\n

Onetime \u201cRHOM\u201d castmate Adriana de Moura echoed what a lot of her followers were thinking, \u201cOh no! What happened?\u201d Martin did not specify what ailed her, but since comments were left on, other people spoke on her behalf. Some assumed she underwent a thyroidectomy, the removal of all or part of the gland that regulates metabolism, among other functions.<\/p>\n

According to the Mayo Clinic<\/a>, the primary reason for this type of operation is cancer, a goiter or suspicious nodule. Someone else hypothesized she only had a biopsy, which is also a surgical procedure.<\/p>\n

Whatever the cause, the Coral Gables resident seems to be doing well. A follow-up post sees her sitting upright, giving out fiction recommendations she received while on the mend. (Her current read is psychological thriller \u201cMy Husband\u2019s Wife\u201d by Alice Feeney.)<\/p>\n

This isn\u2019t the Bravolebrity\u2019s first health iasue in the public eye. The 39-year-old stepped away from the now-paused franchise<\/a> in September 2024 after a diagnosis of postpartum anxiety. Martin had just had her second child with fianc\u00e9, local powerhouse lawyer Anthony Lopez. The girl, who was born five weeks early, is healthy.<\/p>\n

\u201cIt all started about a week after giving birth when I found myself having an overwhelming sense of worry and fear out of nowhere,\u201d Martin wrote on social media at the time. \u201cIt felt like my mind was constantly on high alert, panicked and worrying endlessly about the health of my baby, myself, and my family.\u201d<\/p>\n
