Anyone went through Thyroid Cancer?

Hypothyroid is NOT the way to go!! I would say anything but that! Have you consulted your physician with all the alternatives, as well as the pros & cons of each?I have given several links below to read & perhaps you can read through & understand the different thyroid symptoms & problems.Here is some information about myself, plus some symptoms in case anyone coming upon your question may be interested:I have low thyroid. If you have low thyroid.here’s a great question to answer: Can you see the floor of your house? That was what was asked of me at one point, and to my amazement, the answer was no! I would give just about anything up to not have thyroid problems! It sucks, and the time I skip a day or two, I really get knocked out!Anyway, the signs are:fatigue and lack of energy. Women suffering from underactive thyroid experience heavier menstrual periods. Sluggishness and forgetfulness are symptoms of underactive thyroid problem. Other symptoms of this thyroid disorder are dry skin and hair and constipation.If you have high thyroid, or an overactive one, the signs are: increased body metabolism. This is followed by weight loss and excessive warmth and sweating. Persons suffering from overactive thyroid experience trembling hands, irritability and rapid heartbeat or palpitations. Women with overactive thyroid or hyperthyroidism may experience shorter or lighter menstrual periods.I take medication, and sadly will have to take 1 pill everyday for the rest of my life. There’s a blood check that they will do to see if you have low or high. I hope i’ve helped you!! Im not for sure about thyrogen, but I can tell you I had my thyroid removed when I was 19 due to Graves disease. I am now 21 and it was the best move I ever made. I take synthroid once a day now and it couldnt be better.

I too have had a total thyroidectomy and the radiation. I am in the stage where I’m on levothroid to replace the hormones my thyroid should be making if it was there. I have only had one body scan and that was right after my radiation treatment. Honestly, I would NEVER recommend anyone going into hypothyroid if they had a choice. You feel like total garbage, can’t walk for more than 5 minutes at a time, doing the smallest things such as a load of laundry or unloading the dishwasher will totally wipe you out. Believe me I was there for almost 6 weeks and it was 6 weeks of pure heck on earth. Do some research on Thyrogen and see what the FDA says about it. Also check out some thyroid cancer websites and get some other opinions as well if you haven’t done so. Source(s):http://www.thyca.org
