Hi everyone

I was discharged after 9 years of being monitored with stage 3 papillary cancer in April. I had one last blood test. I have been called today to be told I need a neck scan because my thyroglobulin is raised and at 13. I am so upset and worried. Not even sure what 13 means.  I am worried my cancer has returned. I cannot feel any lumps in my neck and I feel very well. My worry is its somewhere else in my body 

Any advice would be so helpful

Thanks

  • Hi  

    I'm sorry to read about your worries that your cancer may have returned.

    I’m Anne, one of the Community Champions here on the Online Community and, although I'm not a member of this group, I know how we all live with the worry of recurrence.

    I noticed that your post hadn't had any replies yet so responding to you will 'bump' it back to the top of the discussion list again.

    Wishing you all the best and I hope you don't have to wait too long for your neck scan and results.
