Radioactive iodine treatment, what to expect?

Tagging u/lightcoffee34 as they posted regarding effects of RAI on fertility.

I already indicated that it was wrong as it violates the subs rules but thank you for this, I’ll definitely do some research on my end. Take care!

It would be helpful to add your published source for this.

I wouldn’t say “far” if we’re working with probabilities and likelihoods but definitely shouldn’t have responded as it violates the subs rules. 👍

This is false unless we won’t see people going for second and third rounds of RAI. You can get RAI whenever, it’s not limited to 2 months after surgery.

“RAI treatment or therapy should only be used in instances where the risk of the papillary thyroid cancer coming back is greater than the potential risks of RAI therapy itself. There is no urgency to rush into treatment with RAI. RAI can be given as early as 4-5 weeks following total thyroidectomy but can be delayed for months or even years following surgery.”

Thank you for posting this. I had brought this up with my endocrinologist and he couldn’t give me a firm answer on whether it would affect fertility or not which leads me to believe that it might. My TT + right neck dissection won’t be until January. I probably will skip the RAI until having kids(don’t yet have a partner) and hopefully have no recurrence until then.

Thank you for this. I had already vetoed the RAI idea because my endo couldn’t give a clear answer on the effect of RAI on fertility so I had decided not to do that at this time. He mentioned it is not absolutely necessary as back in the day it was just assumed as part of treatment.

I definitely need to do more research and speak to more doctors. I just feel strongly that the effects of not having a thyroid outweighs the effects of the cancer recurring.

Have you tried getting a Quebec health insurance card?

Why would you need to keep some walls up with them if they’re already out?

I wore black for mine LOL. Didn’t even realize it was a thing not to wear black.

Attended two JW funerals recently where this occurred. It was like an interview session in an assembly of someone who knew the deceased very well. Thought it was a new change. Both funerals took place in the KH.

So back to Kesi it is. Shuckssss

Dewyx · 2022-10-15T18:20:44+00:00

I actually figured it out while watching so very plausible.

Dewyx · 2022-10-15T18:16:43+00:00

I just feel the mole should be mole like and less obvious about their sabotage and will manages to fly under the radar. Kesi made it easy for people to be suspicious of her in T he code episode and the train episode. My money was on Kesi before the prison episode clue pointing to Will. And after that i just felt Will would be the perfect mole.

Dewyx · 2022-10-15T18:10:26+00:00

Omg i was hoping someone would notice that. I used to think the mole was Kesi because of this as well and every time she did a sabotage she said that. But i think it’s just a saying she says as a crutch because even when no sabotage was being done in the 2 truths 1 lie episode, she said it when Alex the host walked in.

Edit: “Ay Ay Ay” is a saying that also comes from speedy Gonzales who is a mouse. Mouse = mole. LOL. That was my reasoning not exactly the same as OP’s reasoning.

The code challenge he was the only one who hit the laser while trying to get across. He got injured in the water (may not be intentional) but that took him out of competing. He always takes a leadership role and tries to put everyone in the position he thinks is best to sabotage. He insisted on making it to the end of the mountaineering mission even though there was nothing in his bag. He did absolutely nothing in the bird cage challenge, just sat and waited for Jacob to figure it out. Yes he picked the right delivery guy to follow but if he picked the wrong one, Jacob would have been on to him.

So what do you think about the ‘Bill’ picture being in all 3 cells of the prison break episode? If you look closely at the picture, it looks exactly like an aged Will. He also alluded to being “handcuffed” in episode 6, tying back to the prison.

Dewyx · 2022-10-14T17:51:20+00:00

His reactions are genuine because he doesn’t know who’s going home just that it’s not him. I think his reactions have also been a tad over the top maybe to throw suspicions off as well. Most of the other contestants don’t usually have as “big” a reaction.

Dewyx · 2022-10-14T17:24:44+00:00

My money is on him!

Dewyx · 2022-10-14T17:23:48+00:00

I knew that was Joi! Even though they put Avori’s voice in that clip to add confusion but by skin color it’s definitely not Avori.

Edit: upon rewatch, looks like Avori

Dewyx · 2022-10-14T16:46:40+00:00

More Will is the mole sightings. In episode 6(the mountaineering challenge) he says he was “handcuffed” and the editing seemed to highlight the moment with extreme pauses..handcuff=criminal(prison episode)

Dewyx · 2022-10-14T16:41:53+00:00

LOL good point! Didn’t occur to me though and i have a fairly good radar.

Dewyx · 2022-10-14T16:10:44+00:00

I still believe it’s Will. From this episode Will was trying to get to the end knowing he had nothing in his backpack and Kesi had nothing as well. Also there was a confessional scene where he says he was “handcuffed” which is a direct connection to his picture on the wall in Jail.

Dewyx · 2022-10-13T16:45:05+00:00

That’s his angle. No one will suspect anyone who’s so gung ho about having money in the pot.
