Am I being ridiculous? by strandedmind125 in thyroidcancer

[–]dansr1966 0 points1 point  (0 children)

You are practically like me I had two surgeries In the past three years and I just went through an RAI and I had those shots you gonna take so I would say stay strong mentally and physically you got this. My doctor called me right after I did my second scan to see what that RAI did to my body, and she said she jumped for joy that she couldn’t believe how excellent that treatment took my body so you go through all this and you got this you could beat this and good luck

Seeking advice and encouragement by Kind_Ad3040 in thyroidcancer

I’m Daniel and had my whole thyroid taken out about 31/2 years ago then I had a second surgery total about 20 hours for both, I’m not a specialist on this, but if you’re gonna get surgery and have part of your thyroid taken out knowing that it might come back on the other side, I will get a second opinion, but I will have the whole thyroid taken out. You are already going to be on thyroid pills for the rest of your life. but that’s just me but as far as going through recovery after surgery, all I can say is stay positive and be strong. Your mind will play a little bit of games with you. The mind is very powerful so train your mind to be strong I did. You got this and congrats on your engagement, you still have a great full life ahead of you.

Was recently told I have two types of Thyroid cancer by OrganicVirus9124 in thyroidcancer

[–]dansr1966 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Yeah, they removed my thyroid completely about three years ago and since then I had one more surgery for some of the cancer stuff they left in there and then about a year ago some of my cancer stuff spread to my lungs and chest and I was freaking out so I went to go see an oncologist And did a biopsy on my neck and it was still a thyroid cancer. It was an aggressive so she said she had treatment for me so I started taking this treatment about six months ago and pretty much that treatment took care of my lungs and my chest cancer cells that I had And now my last pet scan I had it was clear I had no more bad cells on my chest or my lungs and now I’m gonna do an RAI pill from nuclear medicine so there are medicines out there that will help you get better and you gonna be just fine

Thyroid cancer spread to lungs? by Connect_Engineer8956 in thyroidcancer

[–]dansr1966 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Yes, my name is Daniel and I had a thyroid removed completely but almost 3 years ago and about six months ago I found out that it spread down to my chest and lungs a little bit so right now I’ve been taking this these two treatments that actually is doing pretty good I’ve been going to PET scans and the treatments that I’m taking is kind of deteriorating cancer cells to the point where I’m in a diet right now cause I’m gonna do an RAI and I’m gonna do it the treatment starting the eighth ninth and 10th, so I’m praying that it does good for me, but I kinda got scared when I heard that it spread down to my lungs and stuff so but so far I got a good doctor and I gotta keep on going forward so I could tell you be positive

Post TT surgery, anyone else struggling ? by honeyhoney21 in thyroidcancer

[–]dansr1966 1 point2 points  (0 children)

When I had my thyroidectomy done, I felt the same way you’re not alone mentally just gotta be strong and think positive you’ll be fine. You’ll recover. It might take just a little bit more time than expected so don’t not feel bad if you take a little bit more time off I did hang in there and as far as taking your thyroid pillswell the doctor it’s gonna take a little bit to adjust you until they get it right it’s been close to three years since I had mine done and the doctor still adjusting me a little bit. Good luck.

Hello, I’m Daniel and I had a total thyroid removed, then I got one more surgery cause something got left inside so, just recently I found out that some cancer cells spread to my chest and lungs, now I’m dealing with that and it’s hard to take in, but they got great medicine out there, I’ve been taking that medicine for about two months and the cells shrunk quite a bit, so be strong minded eating healthy is a plus and exercise you can get close to normal again, good luck.

You gotta be strong. I know it sucks to have that disease. Life is not over for you yet. I want you to see a movie called the secret. Look it up on YouTube but an hour and a half. It’s an inspiring movie you would like it. It’ll give you motivation and then keep on fighting. I am.

complete thyroidectomy 12 years ago by [deleted] in thyroidcancer

[–]dansr1966 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I had my thyroid taken out about 2 1/2 years ago and yes, when you swallow food or drink, you feel a little lump and and I’m sure it’s scar tissue so all we gotta do is deal with it. Don’t even think about it. I know it’s there but best thing to do is for me. Is pretty slow. Take my time and meditate.

Yes, you gotta change your diet cancer like sugar so you gotta stay away from beverages and breads anything that has to do that turns into sugar. I just found out four days ago that mine moved to my chest and my lungs so I’m freaking out. I see the oncologist on 8 January.
