Hi, I just wanted to share that I had the radioactive iodine therapy 2 years ago and will probably need to do it again in a few months.
I have papillary cancer that has metastasized to both lungs.
My dose was quite high, 174, I believe, and I had good results. I cannot be cured, but it can be managed. It wasn’t fun, but it is a cancer treatment and it did shrink my many, many lesions

Thanks for writing! I'm sorry you are going through this! What type of papillary cancer do you have? As I wrote, I have an aggressive form of papillary cancer ,which is why they are recommending the iodine treatment. Glad to hear you had good results! Did the treatment make you feel sick? I wish you the best.....
