Good to learn about the uptake scan, I had something way more invasive pictured in my mind and was too scared to ask about it or research it.
My team is going to let me isolate at home since my house has a basement and I can completely isolate from my husband and kitties, which sucks, but I'm glad it's not in the hospital for that part since I'll have to isolate for 7 days. Good to know about the dry mouth, I'm already prone to that so I'll stock up for sure on sour candy!!!!!
If you ever need to message me for support, I'm here. Let me know how your Dec 10th scan goes, I'm rooting for a sparkling clean report!

That’s fantastic! Initially they said I could self -isolate too, but after the lymph nodes issue was detected they upped my dose to 180mci RAI, so legally I wasn’t allowed to anymore.
I also drank a lot of iced coconut water, really helped for the thirst. Also, if you’re prone to dry eyes, keep some lubricating eye drops on hand. Thankfully dry eyes wasn’t something I struggled with.
I truly hope all goes well for you, and you are also welcome to reach out at anytime!
Hugs and best wishes to you ( and your family)
