Does anyone have any questions about papillary thyroid cancer?

Posted by lindaadele @lindaadele, Aug 30 2:57pm

I am a 25 year survivor of papillary thyroid cancer and have been volunteering for many years answering many questions from people who have papillary thyroid cancer and have questions about it. I would be happy to answer any questions from people who have concerns about thyroid cancer.

Interested in more discussions like this? Go to the Thyroid Cancer Support Group.

@rashida those are the same symptoms I was having on Levothyroxine. I have started on Synthroid 3 days ago and already have some improvement. Did you have any insomnia?

@bellarose17 I will be honest with you these medication‘s affect every single person so so differently that it’s hard to say with the stories I can understand because I have a lot of situation’s with many many medication‘s!!! I don’t know why but for some reason I never have problems with the Synthroid and the other medication for thyroid cancer I don’t know why but who knows everybody’s body is different but I would do is discuss the situation with your doctor and see if the doctor has any suggestions for you moving forward as far as medication’s for you and anything else that would help you out.

@bellarose17 yes I do, but I don’t know whether Synthroid is the cause. I have been an insomniac for several years and I can’t remember if I already had it before Synthroid, or after I started taking it.

Being retired, I take insomnia in stride. I sleep in every morning and don’t feel guilty. After all, my time is my own now. lol.
