Hi guys,
Thank you for taking the time to read this.
Had my thyroid removed in November after a papillary cancer diagnosis. I have been waiting for a date for the radioactive iodine therapy but they have had a backlog. Suddenly got a call to start the low iodine diet that day as going in in 2 weeks time (this coming Tuesday).
I am more nervous about this than the operation. I’m terrified of being stuck in that room and feeling claustrophobic and panicking and not being able to leave.
Do you feel ill after taking the capsule? I know I’m going to have trouble swallowing it!
I also have a painful bladder condition & have been told that it can affect your bladder. So the thought of being in pain and have no help is adding to my anxiety. Did anyone have problems with their bladder?
Any help or advice will be very much appreciated. Thank you so so much!
