    • Close Thyroid Cancer
      Type: Follicular Carcinoma

      When my menstrual cycle went all haywire I went in to see my dr. He felt my throat and said my thyroid was enlarged. Over the next few months I felt it grow. When I finally got insurance I had a lumpectomy. A week later, after the pathology report came back I had the rest of my thyroid removed. I have been on synthroid ever since. The cancer had started to infiltrate my neck tissue. RAI erradicated what was left. I don't regret having it done.

      Treatments

      I recently moved in with a friend who is developing dementia. She is now showing signs of Lewy Bodies.
