I had this cancer in my 20s, too (2004). It metastasized to other parts of my neck, and subsequently, I had an 11-hour surgery. Afterward, I had radioactive iodine and then had 2 more doses over the next 3 years. Today everything is (knock on wood) ok and I feel fine. I take a pill every day, but that's it. My scar has since (mostly) faded, and I now see the whole experience as a blessing. When I was diagnosed, I thought I might die, and I was filled with regrets of all the things I hadn't yet done in life. Now, I make sure I do EVERYTHING I ever wanted so that I never feel that way again. Without cancer, I never would have gotten as much out of this life as I have.
I was also diagnosed with the same cancer, September 2020. Had surgery and now going through Radiation. Praying for anyone going through the same thing out there.🙏
I was diagnosed with the same cancer in 1994. I had my total thyroid removed. Luckily I had radiation treatment and have been ok. I constantly have a total body scan to make sure that the cancer didn’t return to other parts of my body.

How often do you get body scans? Body scans are mri,or ct scan? I had partial thyroid removal one week ago. My ent,didn't knew it was cancer. After surgery,pathology report confirmed variant papillary cancer. Ent say that for right now,we could leave my other half of my thyroid,and do ultrasounds to see if thyroid cancer comes back.

Wow you are strong! God bless you! I just found out today that my thyroid contained cancer. I need to go in for treatment and remove my entire thyroid. June 2021. I do feel physically healthy and strong and have things to life for so I will live. I feel renewed but want to thank everyone single person here who have shared! This is a community and counsel of support just knowing you are all out there! God bless us all!
I have been diagnosed in the last few days with Papillary Thyroid Cancer. I've been very lost since but got online doing research and looking for inspirational videos like this one. My situation is very complicated as I am 18 weeks pregnant so not only am I worried for myself I am worried for my baby. I've never heard of this kind of cancer before so I was shocked and numb when I was told I had this.
I can understand your fear but if the cancer is confined to the thyroid it can probably be successfully removed without harm to your baby. You will have to be monitored closely by your Ob doctor. The best of luck to your and your unborn child.
@@Rebecca-1111 my wife was diagnosed yesterday and I'm just wondering how you and the other woman are? My wife's got three tumors and one in her isthmus that has spread to the lymphnode.
@@cvonpete I'm sorry to hear about your wife. I'm doing OK. I have a paralyzed vocal cord and nerve damage in my face from a neck dissection. I have had 3 neck surgeries and RAI. The cancer is not curable. Where is the isthmus? Is that the organ they try hard to preserve? it has something to do with calcium? Have her get her vitamin D3 levels checked. Mine were very low they check it every 6 months now. I think it may possibly have been part of the cause? I have gotten weaker the past couple year's. Almost 10yrs with metastatic to the lymph nodes with some tall cell and BRAFV600E mutation, that mutates papillary into anaplastic. Prayers for you both. ☺ 🙏
@@cvonpete Also caught early thyca can be very curable. I'm stage 3. Did they tell her the stage yet? I just found out last year I was stage 3 at my first surgery. You really have to advocate because Dr's don't give out all the information. Bring questions and paper to write things down. It can be overwhelming with multidisciplinary team of Dr's.
so much strength in one person, hope you full recovery, also you inspired me in so many ways, wish you the best from the bottom of my heart, may Allah grant you complete cure❤️
I'm going through this now, full thyroid removal, a lot of lymph nodes taken out of the rights side of my neck (right up to my jaw), had surgery on the 1st Feb 2022. I see the surgeon on the 22nd to debrief the surgery and confirm the radioactive iodine date. Good luck to us all xx
@@craigrik2699 same! I'm 21 years old now (22 in June) and I was diagnosed with thryoid cancer when I was 20 years old. Originally I was supposed to stay overnight however my lymphatic vessel was "inadvertently damaged" during the procedure which meant a 1+ week hospital stay. They tried to stop the leakage caused by my surgery however they could not in the OR so I was sent to IR (Interventional Radiology) where they made a small incision into my stomach and stuck wires leading up to my heart to place a catheter to control the leak behind my heart. Well, another patient was having an emergency medical situation which meant they had to abort my procedure about halfway through 2 1/2 hours later. Good news is, is that the liquid/whatever it was they had injected into the vessel only had a 15-20% chance of working and it did. The leak was managed and no further procedures were needed thank God however I could not eat a single thing for a few days it was pure hell. I never felt such hunger in my life!!😞 Well, that's my story of experience with this and I'm so happy I'm not alone and there are many others who went through the same thing! I now have to take medication every morning fot the rest of my life however it's a rather small price to pay. Never needed radiation or anything however though they did remove 23 of my lymph nodes like you stated. 3 of which were cancerous.
@@shyryTsr2k Hi, got my RI (2400 mq) on Wednesday afternoon. By the morning (and a lot of water drinking) scan (2 per day) I had shed at least 60% of the RI, the physicist said I could look at release from the hospital that afternoon. I didn't, it was still just a wee bit to high however, I did get released the next morning, I was at 590 mq. No issues, the only painful part was the hospital was freezing (we are in Perth, Western Australia), I've caught a cold. I've moved into our masterbed room and my partner has moved into the spare room. The issue is that through my saliva or sweat or urine, some of my radioactive iodine could get into someone else's thyroid and cause damage, through absorbing my bodily fluid. So, I'll be in the masterbed room by myself at least till Wednesday, the wife is enjoying having a bed to herself lol. I go for my PET MIR scan tomorrow, as you know, this will show where any remaining thyroid tissue has taken up the RI, fingers crossed. Take care
@@craigrik2699 this is why I'm glad there are free places for cancer patients to stay going through this. Especially with young children at home. Just call the cancer foundation holiness. They had everything I needed I just brought food. The hospital had no help just gave me the RAI and sent me on my way. That's wrong. Can't be around pregnant people Especially babies and children.
I am stage 1V papillary cancer. I had my thyroidectomy three years ago. Did rai,. Lots of radiation treatments. Took a year off and now in TKI . It is in lungs back in neck , and in spine t3t4t5. . I am praying the TKI works it's helped with back pain. The first time I tried it I could not take it more than three weeks so now taking less. I am glad thyroid cancer is slow growing. The part that is getting upsetting is I have to look at assisted living places. For those of you out there most cases have a high cure rate. I had mine for a long time before we found it. I did not have any symptoms till I felt a lump. For six months my regular Drs could not feel it. When I told them I now feel three lumps. We did a ultrasound and biopsy. I pray for you all keep the faith.
I would love to speak you… I’ve never watched anything about my thyroid journey until now… you are a massive inspiration young lady xxx watching you was like an out of body experience! Seems we are both two very lucky ladies xxx
I was diagnosed yesterday that I have this cancer too. I'm fine most of the time but it's hard to see my family worry about me especially when they are not with me physically.
Thank you for sharing your story... I had breast cancer 5 yrs ago and have the BRCA gene... went for my check up and my breast cancer Dr./surgeon felt lumps in my thyroid. I saw an endocrinologist who did an ultrasound. Sending me for another and is doing a biopsy this Thursday. Nerve wracking... sending healing thoughts to all that commented to your video and to you!
@aliyahossaini8772 I'm great, thank you! So far, mine are not cancerous. I have many thyroid nodules, and they check them yearly for changes. Do you have this too?
@@SSaaNNddYY77i just found a lump on my thyroid i did biopsy and the result is atypical cells...not sure for cancer but not looks normal cells. I refered to surgeon for thyroidectomy...i m so scared...i m 35 having 3 small kids Very hard time
@aliyahossaini8772 Awww... I'm sorry you're going through a very scary time. It's good that it was found and you're getting it taken care of. Wishing you all the best.
I also got to know that I have papillary thyroid cancer 2 months ago after all the diagnosis and tests. And I am being operated 2 days backs. The doctors did the total thyroidectomy surgery. Now after watching all these videos and people like me who went through the same, am feeling strong and I can deal with this cancer.
You’re a Great inspiration. At 60 years old during a routine doctors appointment the Doctor felt a lump on my left thyroid. It turned out to be a 8 cmx4cmx4cm nodule that encapsulated my left thyroid. I had a 7 needle biopsy that determined it was non cancerous. In late March my Thyroid was removed. After a week I received a call stating I had PTC. Back to surgery at end of June and then a round of iodine radiation. The “C” word is always scary. Prayers and supportive Friends and Family help you get through uncertain times. I run every other day and do weightlifting (4) times a week, I thought I was healthy. Things happen and you have to be positive. Prayers to everyone going through this.
I just got diagnosed with Papillary Carcinoma in the thyroid, after dealing with about a year of fatigue and panick attacks. Trying to figure it all out. Thank you for sharing your story
I also had thyroid cancer. I got it removed this January and it spread to my lymph nodes, too. It’s reassuring knowing that there are other people like me
@@miazaragoza198 I was recently diagnosed with thyroid cancer. Your video helped me a lot! You can’t let it beat you! I just want to thank you so much making this video. I am grateful!
I have been living since 2013 with stage 3 metastatic to the lymph nodes I hope your doing well? I'm getting much weaker. Levo causing my heart to do something strange. They wanted to put me on beta blockers but my BP was too low 🤗?
Hi I am currently going through Chemotherapy for the Thyroid cancer Lymphoma had it once before in the neck and had to go through radiotherapy as well to get rid of Malt lymphoma and I have just finished my third cycle of six chemo treatments tired but happy love all the positive stories. Thanks
Thank you for your more than inspiring story! I've been diagnosed with papilary thyroid cancer and did my first surgery, but since it's spread to lymph nodes, I will have to go to another surgery. And I know how challenging it is, that's why I admire you so much. But as you said, If I could go trough this, I can do anything in life. 💪 ♥
i had 3 surgeries because it spread to my lymph nodes and they had to remove half my thyroid and then the other half in another surgery as they didn’t know if it was cancerous at first, wish you luck🤍
oh my goodness this story is too close to mine. ive also just finished my 2nd year of uni, about to go into my 3rd where ive been feeling super tired and off with a lump on my neck, and i go to the SAME uni as her!!!!! what a coincidence!!!
I was diagnosed with the same cancer and had a total thyroidectomy. I had a iodine radiation too after they discovered my tumour had created a lot of vessels to spread the cancer. Unfortunately it’s spread to my adrenal glands so I’m now having treatment for that
Oct 2023 I have done surgery on to remove entire Thyroid and some lymph nodes. Coming March 20 I will take on radiation therapy (iodine). A bit nervous about the side effect. But tend to do it and roll my dice anyway. 🤞
I had a totally thyroidectomy in 2000 and now have bilateral paralysed vocal chords.. And had 3 rounds of radioactive iodine. Has anybody else has these issues.
It's been 17 years since I had papilary cancer. I have lupus. In 1 month my 3 barely able to feel tumors went to walnut sized in 4 weeks with 7 more small tumors. My symptoms were exhaustion. I found my tumors giving myself a breast exam in the shower. My doctor couldn't feel them but knew from experience that he better check it out. I had my thyroid. Para thyroid and 5 lymph nodes removed. I did the radiun I- 131 and never felt well. Never could balance my thyroid. Synthroid and Armour. I teeter totter.all of a sudden my voice is deep sounding. And my hair is falling out. Lordy I have lots of hair, but at this rate I'm worried. I'm wondering if my cancer is back?. I live in a rural Oregon town . Any reccomending doctors?
Jus had my second chemo for lymphoma I have also got papillary cancer, I have been in agony with cramps due to a drop in calcium due to the thyroidectomy I am in hospital now having drips of calcium. But after this it drops again I have to see an endocrine doc next week
@@deepattison9329 their very fragile and you need a Dr that has performed alot of them. Lucky I was sent to my Dr's teacher. It paralyzed 1 vocal cord.
Have faith in the doctors the surgeons and nurses with their help and your family you will get through this i has my thyroid removed and infected Lymph nodes in my neck 2yrs ago and have been well ever since......stay strong Alireza

Find the very best endocrinologist and surgeon available and follow their advice. I am two weeks post-thyroidectomy and doing well. I wish the same for you.
I was diagnosed with PTC 16 yrs ago and 8 yrs later spread to left lymph node. I have chosen active surveillance and did yearly ultra sound. No intention for operation since there's no pain or symptoms.
@@aliyahossaini8772 There was a lump below my chin, did an operation to remove . Biopsy confirmed that it was thyroid cancer. Doctor panel advice to monitor with ultrasound regularly. 6 yrs ago the cancer spread to left lymph node and advice to do a thyroidectomy. As there is no symptoms, so I have decided to chose active surveillance.. Thank God , able to keep the thyroid and life as normal.
I was 23 yrs old (May 2020) when I found out I had Papillary Thyroid Carcinoma in the left side of my thyroid. I was lucky I found out early stage because it was malignant and didn't have to do radiation but I need to come for second operation for the right side due to seeing something on lymph nodes. Update now i still dont have the right doseage of my thyroxin meds😅.

@@briansheilla6324 look if u can’t go the vegan 🌱 route I’m sure u can still beat this with the raw juicing and wheatgrass. Let me know what route u will take because there is more things u can add to ur diet if u go the no vegan route.like immune boosting erbs
U r not alone ms janice,we have most d same situations, i know GOD will protects us lets have faith in him,,GOD BLESS US ALL🙏
Wow you are strong! God bless you! I just found out today that my thyroid contained cancer. I need to go in for treatment and remove my entire thyroid. June 2021. I do feel physically healthy and strong and have things to life for so I will live. I feel renewed but want to thank everyone single person here who have shared! This is a community and counsel of support just knowing you are all out there! God bless us all!
I feel happy for you. If you live in NYC do you have any suggestion for a good doctor?
I sure hope all is well with you now? It was my 1st surgery when I found out it was worse then they thought and genetic counseling.
I have been diagnosed in the last few days with Papillary Thyroid Cancer. I've been very lost since but got online doing research and looking for inspirational videos like this one. My situation is very complicated as I am 18 weeks pregnant so not only am I worried for myself I am worried for my baby. I've never heard of this kind of cancer before so I was shocked and numb when I was told I had this.
I can understand your fear but if the cancer is confined to the thyroid it can probably be successfully removed without harm to your baby. You will have to be monitored closely by your Ob doctor. The best of luck to your and your unborn child.
I found out I was stagec3 in 2013. I had a son in 2010 I'm positive I had it then. I hope all worked out well for you?
@@Rebecca-1111 my wife was diagnosed yesterday and I'm just wondering how you and the other woman are? My wife's got three tumors and one in her isthmus that has spread to the lymphnode.
@@cvonpete I'm sorry to hear about your wife. I'm doing OK. I have a paralyzed vocal cord and nerve damage in my face from a neck dissection. I have had 3 neck surgeries and RAI. The cancer is not curable.
Where is the isthmus? Is that the organ they try hard to preserve? it has something to do with calcium? Have her get her vitamin D3 levels checked. Mine were very low they check it every 6 months now. I think it may possibly have been part of the cause? I have gotten weaker the past couple year's. Almost 10yrs with metastatic to the lymph nodes with some tall cell and BRAFV600E mutation, that mutates papillary into anaplastic. Prayers for you both. ☺ 🙏
@@cvonpete Also caught early thyca can be very curable. I'm stage 3. Did they tell her the stage yet? I just found out last year I was stage 3 at my first surgery. You really have to advocate because Dr's don't give out all the information. Bring questions and paper to write things down. It can be overwhelming with multidisciplinary team of Dr's.
Thank you for sharing Rebekka’s story ♥️♥️♥️♥️ so inspiring!!
Well done for persevering through something so challenging and congratulations on a 1st degree. Well done ! 👏🏽
so much strength in one person, hope you full recovery, also you inspired me in so many ways, wish you the best from the bottom of my heart, may Allah grant you complete cure❤️
You are a great sister. It was very wise of you to seek help and support
I'm going through this now, full thyroid removal, a lot of lymph nodes taken out of the rights side of my neck (right up to my jaw), had surgery on the 1st Feb 2022. I see the surgeon on the 22nd to debrief the surgery and confirm the radioactive iodine date. Good luck to us all xx
Just an update: I have Radioactive Iodine (RI) treatment on the 27th Apr, after 2 weeks of a low iodine diet.
@@craigrik2699 same! I'm 21 years old now (22 in June) and I was diagnosed with thryoid cancer when I was 20 years old. Originally I was supposed to stay overnight however my lymphatic vessel was "inadvertently damaged" during the procedure which meant a 1+ week hospital stay. They tried to stop the leakage caused by my surgery however they could not in the OR so I was sent to IR (Interventional Radiology) where they made a small incision into my stomach and stuck wires leading up to my heart to place a catheter to control the leak behind my heart. Well, another patient was having an emergency medical situation which meant they had to abort my procedure about halfway through 2 1/2 hours later. Good news is, is that the liquid/whatever it was they had injected into the vessel only had a 15-20% chance of working and it did. The leak was managed and no further procedures were needed thank God however I could not eat a single thing for a few days it was pure hell. I never felt such hunger in my life!!😞
Well, that's my story of experience with this and I'm so happy I'm not alone and there are many others who went through the same thing! I now have to take medication every morning fot the rest of my life however it's a rather small price to pay. Never needed radiation or anything however though they did remove 23 of my lymph nodes like you stated. 3 of which were cancerous.
@@shyryTsr2k Hi, got my RI (2400 mq) on Wednesday afternoon. By the morning (and a lot of water drinking) scan (2 per day) I had shed at least 60% of the RI, the physicist said I could look at release from the hospital that afternoon. I didn't, it was still just a wee bit to high however, I did get released the next morning, I was at 590 mq. No issues, the only painful part was the hospital was freezing (we are in Perth, Western Australia), I've caught a cold. I've moved into our masterbed room and my partner has moved into the spare room. The issue is that through my saliva or sweat or urine, some of my radioactive iodine could get into someone else's thyroid and cause damage, through absorbing my bodily fluid. So, I'll be in the masterbed room by myself at least till Wednesday, the wife is enjoying having a bed to herself lol. I go for my PET MIR scan tomorrow, as you know, this will show where any remaining thyroid tissue has taken up the RI, fingers crossed. Take care
@@craigrik2699 this is why I'm glad there are free places for cancer patients to stay going through this. Especially with young children at home. Just call the cancer foundation holiness. They had everything I needed I just brought food. The hospital had no help just gave me the RAI and sent me on my way. That's wrong. Can't be around pregnant people Especially babies and children.
Hello,
Did they remove the central lymph nodes for you ?
I am stage 1V papillary cancer. I had my thyroidectomy three years ago. Did rai,. Lots of radiation treatments. Took a year off and now in TKI . It is in lungs back in neck , and in spine t3t4t5. . I am praying the TKI works it's helped with back pain. The first time I tried it I could not take it more than three weeks so now taking less. I am glad thyroid cancer is slow growing. The part that is getting upsetting is I have to look at assisted living places. For those of you out there most cases have a high cure rate. I had mine for a long time before we found it. I did not have any symptoms till I felt a lump. For six months my regular Drs could not feel it. When I told them I now feel three lumps. We did a ultrasound and biopsy. I pray for you all keep the faith.
R u cancer free now?
@@aliyahossaini8772no stage 4 cancer can never be cured. Once you get to stage 4 you can only achieve remission (rarely) not cure.
So sorry to hear this. I hope you have it under control now and are feeling ok…
It must have metastasized. Sorry to hear that you went through this. Gods going to help and cure you of this 🙏🏼
I would love to speak you… I’ve never watched anything about my thyroid journey until now… you are a massive inspiration young lady xxx watching you was like an out of body experience! Seems we are both two very lucky ladies xxx
I was diagnosed yesterday that I have this cancer too. I'm fine most of the time but it's hard to see my family worry about me especially when they are not with me physically.
How r u doing now
Thank you for sharing your story... I had breast cancer 5 yrs ago and have the BRCA gene... went for my check up and my breast cancer Dr./surgeon felt lumps in my thyroid. I saw an endocrinologist who did an ultrasound. Sending me for another and is doing a biopsy this Thursday. Nerve wracking... sending healing thoughts to all that commented to your video and to you!
How r u doin now
@aliyahossaini8772 I'm great, thank you! So far, mine are not cancerous. I have many thyroid nodules, and they check them yearly for changes. Do you have this too?
@@SSaaNNddYY77i just found a lump on my thyroid i did biopsy and the result is atypical cells...not sure for cancer but not looks normal cells. I refered to surgeon for thyroidectomy...i m so scared...i m 35 having 3 small kids
Very hard time
@aliyahossaini8772 Awww... I'm sorry you're going through a very scary time. It's good that it was found and you're getting it taken care of. Wishing you all the best.
I also got to know that I have papillary thyroid cancer 2 months ago after all the diagnosis and tests. And I am being operated 2 days backs. The doctors did the total thyroidectomy surgery. Now after watching all these videos and people like me who went through the same, am feeling strong and I can deal with this cancer.
Now r u ok
How are you feeling now?
You’re a Great inspiration. At 60 years old during a routine doctors appointment the Doctor felt a lump on my left thyroid. It turned out to be a 8 cmx4cmx4cm nodule that encapsulated my left thyroid. I had a 7 needle biopsy that determined it was non cancerous. In late March my Thyroid was removed. After a week I received a call stating I had PTC. Back to surgery at end of June and then a round of iodine radiation. The “C” word is always scary. Prayers and supportive Friends and Family help you get through uncertain times. I run every other day and do weightlifting (4) times a week, I thought I was healthy. Things happen and you have to be positive. Prayers to everyone going through this.
I just got diagnosed with Papillary Carcinoma in the thyroid, after dealing with about a year of fatigue and panick attacks. Trying to figure it all out. Thank you for sharing your story
Thank you for sharing your story , I was diagnosed with the same cancer , my surgery is this month 🙏😘😘 praying for all❤️🥰
Have u done your surgery?
Just found out last week I have papillary carcinoma at age 26 being a single mom it’s definitely scary ty for sharing your story
How are you now?
My daughter has also found June 22 ,I am single parent and also confuse about total thyroidectomy
How r u now?
thank you
I also had thyroid cancer. I got it removed this January and it spread to my lymph nodes, too. It’s reassuring knowing that there are other people like me
How are you doing? Holding up?
@@themilioxperience2427 I'm just fine now, thank you!
@@miazaragoza198 I was recently diagnosed with thyroid cancer. Your video helped me a lot! You can’t let it beat you! I just want to thank you so much making this video. I am grateful!
I highly recommend Dr Onyeneke on TH-cam he curred me from hyperthyroidism which I have been suffering from for the past 6 years now.
I have been living since 2013 with stage 3 metastatic to the lymph nodes I hope your doing well? I'm getting much weaker. Levo causing my heart to do something strange. They wanted to put me on beta blockers but my BP was too low 🤗?
Hi I am currently going through Chemotherapy for the Thyroid cancer Lymphoma had it once before in the neck and had to go through radiotherapy as well to get rid of Malt lymphoma and I have just finished my third cycle of six chemo treatments tired but happy love all the positive stories. Thanks
Hi.hope u r doing ok. Why ur Dr recommend chemo?
i’m 15 and have had 3 surgeries and got told it spread to my lungs waiting to see if the iodine killed it💜
🙏🏻
Please can you tell me if it speards to the lungs whats the treatment? Will you loose your hair?
May God bless you!!!
I highly recommend Dr Onyeneke on TH-cam he curred me from hyperthyroidism which I have been suffering from for the past 6 years now.
You will continue to be in my thoughts. Cancer is a cruel disease and I hope that you can beat it.
Thank you for your more than inspiring story! I've been diagnosed with papilary thyroid cancer and did my first surgery, but since it's spread to lymph nodes, I will have to go to another surgery. And I know how challenging it is, that's why I admire you so much. But as you said, If I could go trough this, I can do anything in life. 💪 ♥
I also had two surgeries because of the same thing and everything went great. I pray the same happens with you😁
@@matiashernandez200 Thank you so much 🙏 I'm so glad everything went great with your surgeries and recovery!! ☺ ♥
You are lot alone love
i had 3 surgeries because it spread to my lymph nodes and they had to remove half my thyroid and then the other half in another surgery as they didn’t know if it was cancerous at first, wish you luck🤍
I highly recommend Dr Onyeneke on TH-cam he curred me from hyperthyroidism which I have been suffering from for the past 6 years now.
oh my goodness this story is too close to mine.
ive also just finished my 2nd year of uni, about to go into my 3rd where ive been feeling super tired and off with a lump on my neck, and i go to the SAME uni as her!!!!! what a coincidence!!!
How are you doing now? ❤❤
I just got the dignosis today that i have papillary thyroid cancer. Very upset lots of unknowing.... mom of 3 small kids. I m just 35.😢
Hey.
Things will be fine.
You will see your grandchildren growing up.
I was just diagnosed with this last week
I was diagnosed with the same cancer and had a total thyroidectomy. I had a iodine radiation too after they discovered my tumour had created a lot of vessels to spread the cancer. Unfortunately it’s spread to my adrenal glands so I’m now having treatment for that
Thanks for sharing your story.
Oct 2023 I have done surgery on to remove entire Thyroid and some lymph nodes. Coming March 20 I will take on radiation therapy (iodine). A bit nervous about the side effect. But tend to do it and roll my dice anyway. 🤞
I had a totally thyroidectomy in 2000 and now have bilateral paralysed vocal chords.. And had 3 rounds of radioactive iodine. Has anybody else has these issues.
I been diagnosed with papillary carcinoma cancer, everything was so fast that my surgery is next week.
I highly recommend Dr Onyeneke on TH-cam he curred me from hyperthyroidism which I have been suffering from for the past 6 years now.
Doctors just fry ur brain making u think ur gonna die to rush you to surgery without making and smart decisions.
How are you doing? I do hope well? A year out? The first surgery can be eye opening.
I had my surger last oct 22,2020.and just finish my radiation treatment,
I highly recommend Dr Onyeneke on TH-cam he curred me from hyperthyroidism which I have been suffering from for the past 6 years now.
How are you now ?
It's been 17 years since I had papilary cancer. I have lupus. In 1 month my 3 barely able to feel tumors went to walnut sized in 4 weeks with 7 more small tumors. My symptoms were exhaustion. I found my tumors giving myself a breast exam in the shower. My doctor couldn't feel them but knew from experience that he better check it out. I had my thyroid. Para thyroid and 5 lymph nodes removed. I did the radiun I- 131 and never felt well. Never could balance my thyroid. Synthroid and Armour. I teeter totter.all of a sudden my voice is deep sounding. And my hair is falling out. Lordy I have lots of hair, but at this rate I'm worried. I'm wondering if my cancer is back?. I live in a rural Oregon town . Any reccomending doctors?
Jus had my second chemo for lymphoma I have also got papillary cancer, I have been in agony with cramps due to a drop in calcium due to the thyroidectomy I am in hospital now having drips of calcium. But after this it drops again I have to see an endocrine doc next week
The parathyroid glands govern calcium and don't like to be disturbed, as they are when the thyroid is removed.
@@deepattison9329 their very fragile and you need a Dr that has performed alot of them. Lucky I was sent to my Dr's teacher. It paralyzed 1 vocal cord.
You should be seeing a endo doc from the beginning to help get your body right and stable on levothyroxine
I’m waiting for my doctor consult after getting bloodwork results for my thyroid.
High TSH, Low T4, normal T3. A day later, found out my TPO is >1300.

My TPO is >600 they said both of my TSH and T4, T3 are both high
I've been diagnosed with PTC 2 days ago, and reading comments, I'm scared shitless. Dammit :(

Hi. Does TPO level greater than 1300 mean Papillary thyroid cancer?
No,Hashimotos thyroiditis
I was diagnosed with PTC 16 yrs ago and 8 yrs later spread to left lymph node. I have chosen active surveillance and did yearly ultra sound. No intention for operation since there's no pain or symptoms.
How did u find at first that u have cancer?
@@aliyahossaini8772
There was a lump below my chin,
did an operation to remove . Biopsy confirmed that it was thyroid cancer.
Doctor panel advice to monitor with ultrasound regularly. 6 yrs ago the cancer spread to left lymph node and advice to do a thyroidectomy.
As there is no symptoms, so I have decided to chose active surveillance.. Thank God , able to keep the thyroid and life as normal.
I was 23 yrs old (May 2020) when I found out I had Papillary Thyroid Carcinoma in the left side of my thyroid. I was lucky I found out early stage because it was malignant and didn't have to do radiation but I need to come for second operation for the right side due to seeing something on lymph nodes. Update now i still dont have the right doseage of my thyroxin meds😅.
Did they do radioactive iodine on ya? How are you feeling now? Hope all is well?
