Liquid Radiotherapy

Hi Westerdale 

How are you feeling after your surgery? Hopefully, you're recovering nicely.

I noticed that your post hadn't had any replies yet so searched the group for other posts which mention 'liquid radiotherapy'. However, as none other than your own came up, I wondered if 'liquid radiotherapy' is also called something else?

I believe that liquid RAI (radioactive iodine) is given to people who suffer from swallowing problems.  Is that correct in your case @Westerdale?  Otherwise you would have a pill, if swallowing isn't a problem.  I have had the pill and my experience was positive.  I had no adverse reactions apart from my tummy being a bit off it for a couple of days after I got home.  I spent 2 nights in hospital while my radiation levels were high, had a whole body scan and then home on the 3rd day.
