Thyroid Cancer Group: Introduce yourself and connect with others

Hello-my name is Bob and I have malignant neoplasms of the thyroid papillary.
I have gone thru 2 rounds of surgery and iodine. Now I’m starting round 3.
I have elevated markers and I get a biopsy the day after Christmas.

Hello, I’m Jesse a 49 year old male that was diagnosed with poorly differentiated thyroid cancer which also decided to venture to my lungs as well. I had my thyroid removed in August, followed up with iodine treatment and began clinical study BLU-667 in October. I’ve had two scan which have shown a reduction in size of the spots in my lungs and clear marks in neck.
I’m still trying to get used to not having a thyroid and taking oral chemo everyday. I have my ups and downs but everyday is another opportunity for me to rebuild, Grateful for the clinical study and my care team! Go BLU!!!!

Hi, @nobody - sounds as though the November thyroid surgery you had did not have the outcome you were looking for. Will you share more about how that went and where things are at currently for you?

I was diagnosed with Follicator cell and Hurdle cell
Had biopsy's, positive. Had to put this on back burner due to a different type of cancer in breast.
Finally had thyroid surgery in November. It was a colossal mistake. So surgical outcome was awful and I have not selected a follow up treatment.
