Hello, I just noticed in your post that you mentioned Carcinoid cancer. I wanted to take the opportunity to invite you to share in our NET discussion group. Here is the link to our NET discussion, https://connect.mayoclinic.org/group/neuroendocrine-tumors-nets/tab/discussions/

Most of us feel like you do - we are fortunate that this rare disorder was found, one way or the other. One word of caution, though, I see that you were told to continue the follow up for 10 years, however, on my 11th year (after my 2nd surgery) I had another NET appear - it is better to keep the surveillance going longer than necessary to ensure that you stay free from NETs.

I would be interested in hearing about the results of the Gallium-68 when you have it.

I look forward to hearing from you again.

Teresa

My Gallium 68 Dotatate scan did not show any new neuroendocrine cancer. I am thankful. I have however been diagnosed with hypothyroidism and am now concerned it might be related to so much radiation over the past three years. Currently on low dose if thyroid Med.
