Hi all,  I had my surgery to remove my thyroid cancer in November and had my RAI on January 13th.

I was due for my first checkup tomorrow which of course has been cancelled ! I feel very scared and vulnerable at this stage  as I dont know when things will return to  normal and I get to see my Consultant.  I know there are some very unwell people out there that need medical attention but I was waiting eagerly for my check up for reassurance that all is well and the cancer has not come back or spread somewhere else.

  • Hey Vivienne , 

    I'm surprised they cancelled it entirely and didn't just swap it to a phone appointment.

    I'd maybe give them a call tomorrow and ask if you could have a telephone appointment, just to get your results back as it's not fair to have you waiting another 3 months or more with that uncertainty over your head!
