I had follicular and papillary cancer of the thyroid 20 years ago. I had a double entry done by Dr DE Joyner at Loyola hospital. I had radiation as a child and when I was in my 20''s they notified me that I was a risk for thyroid cancer. I watch it till my 60''s when I then got it. Had thyroid completely removed. I now have 3 meningiomas brain tumors.I had surgery for one. The others we are watching. They feel these tumors are related to the radiation.
