When the Dr at Breastscreen was feeling my glands he mentioned that I had a goitre. It wasnt a goitre but a 3.3cm tumour in the right lower lobe of the thyroid. I have had the thyroid removed March 2010. Since then I have had 3 rounds of radioactive iodine - Nov 2010, June 2011 & May 2012. The last round was a larger dose than the others in the hope I wouldnt have to another roundf of iodone. There have been evidence that the thyroid cancer cells are in my lungs and even though my cancer cell count is dropping it hasnt dropped enough to stop treatment. It will be another 3 odd weeks before I know if the last lot of treatment has been successful or not.
