    • Close Thyroid Cancer
      Type: Papillary Carcinoma

      I found a lump in 2005 and after various tests it was confirmed that I had a 3cm cancerous tumour in my thyroid gland. So far had two operations, radioactive iodine treatment and I have another treatment in October. Just about to start my non iodine diet this Sat 22nd Sept in preparation for my next dose. Left vocal cord accidently cut in 2nd op so that has to be fixed at some stage.

      Treatments

      Radioactive Iodine Too Soon to Tell
      Terrible side effects, my oncologist said it was the worst case she had ever seen.
      Thyroidectomy Too Soon to Tell
      Bloomin painful 2nd op, very ill.
