Hi All,
i have had my scans after having my radioactive iodine treatment. I am waiting now to go back in a few weeks to get the results.
I am feeling better and stronger everyday now. I do feel more tired than usual and cannot get up in the mornings after having a lifetime of getting up at 5.30!
I wanted to know if we are entitiled to free dental treatment as i have a nagging toothache?
I am still in the paranoid stage of examining my body with a microscope for any changes, lumps etc but I am also still seeing the Psychiatrist and that really is a big help.

Heya,
Good to hear that you're continuing to improve and are feeling better every day!
I'm afraid that having cancer isn't something that entitles you to free dental work. The only thing that reduces the cost of dentalwork is being on certain types of benefits.
Hope you get to a dentist soon and get yourself sorted!
