Welcome, Molly. How was your recovery after radiation? What is your follow-up schedule, i.e., how ofter do you see your endocrine oncologist and what tests are done?

Hi Colleen, Since my re-occurrence/radiation in 2014 (initial diagnosis and thyroidectomy was 2010); my schedule for follow up is an annual visit with the endocrine doctor with routine panel of related bloodwork. It typically includes a sonogram as well, since I have also survived six (6) other cancers - all have some kind of atypical character, so an abundance of caution is the rule now.
