I just got great news before my surgery on Tuesday (March 5th)! My diagnosis went from Medullary Thyroid cancer to Papillary! The nodule played nice and stayed engulfed in cystic fluid in my right lobe! I had my right lobe removed and the naughty nodule went with it:) At this time, no other meds or surgeries are needed! This was such a relief as I lost my beautiful mom to brain cancer in November! She was definitely my guardian angel!

that is great news. Hope you are recovering well. I had Follicular carcinoma with vascular invasion. My lump came up quickly and grew fast. A fine needle biopsy revealed no cancer, however it was large (luckily) so it needed to come out. A month later the path came back and I had surgery to remove my left thyroid as well. Because of my age, 64, the size and the kind I did have RAI. My surgery was June and July. I'm still trying to recover. I'm glad no other surgery or meds needed!! And my condolences to you on your mom. I know this journey for you had to be so full of anxiety. Happy day!
