Got someone on the advanced group who is looking for clinical trials in the UK. Do we have anyone who knows of anything? Additionally, anyone whose consultant,...
HI there Doctor Mohan is the endo and he seems a really nice guy - young guy pretty good manner But I really liked Ricard Simo who is the surgeon there - at...
Hi, My consultant surgeon, Mr Pittam based at Luton & Dunstable Hospital Bedfordshire (although i think he works at other hospitals if required) is apparantly...
We're probably talking inoperable here so more of excellent endo (or thyroid oncologist) and clinical trials. However, all info is useful, never know when...
The gold standard is the Institute of Cancer Research/Royal Marsden Hospital. They are also the most likely to know of trials being conducted elsewhere in the...
I did a little more digging. There are currently two trials in the UK according to the UK's trials database. One is looking at the use of Thyrogen so not very...
Actually this second trial might be of interest to others on this list because ot is a multicentre trial into the use of Thyrogen with radioiodine therapy -...
Hi Claire I've been away on holiday, just logged in and read that you are having your RAI at the moment. Hope it went well for you and the isolation wasn't...
Hi everyone The girl serving me at the Library last night had a scar to match mine and I couldnt help but ask her about it. She seemed pleased to talk to a...
Yep, there's been some "conversation" about this on the US Group. It "can" be hereditary; which doesn't necessarily say it "has" to be............... I just...
Hi everyone, Well I've finally had my RAI. Not a nice experience at all, being isolated for 3 days was awful. I wasn't actually that bored, most of the time...
Hi Claire, Don't worry about moaning - thats what we're here for. And RAi is worth moaning about - poor you! I hated being stuck in the room as well and it...
Hi there Claire! Moan away............we understand, it's miserable............ Got to admit it was less miserable for me because I was at home, keeping well...
Hello from the other side of the pond- Congratulations Claire ! for Getting through Rai and having a great plan for your family- It will take a little time-...
Hi Claire Well done for getting through the isolation, I didn't think you were moaning at all, we all know exactly how you are feeling and it really is tough...
There is a USA Today article coming out tomorrow morning, or at least is supposed to. http://seer.cancer.gov/statfacts/html/thyro.html has some current stats...
After being well suppressed on T3 since my RAI in Feb I switched to T4 six weeks ago. My first T4 bloods have shown that my TSH has soared to 46 and, a bit...
I've just had my Critical Illness claim approved and it was much more straight-forward than I expected. Nicola at HSBC Life was very efficient and sympathetic...
Hi Craig I remember you saying before how well you felt on T3. This seemed to be contrary to the usual and, indeed, your body does seem to behaving the other ...
Hi Craig, The dose increase in your thyroxine should make a big difference to you. Your TSH being 46 just means that you are not taking enough thyroxine and...
Further to my previous message, Craig, I was "assuming" - you've left it sufficiently long (at least 6 weeks......) before having your blood checked since the...
Thanks Ruth and Lesley, I have put on a bit of weight (basically what I lost on T3 - I was on 80mcg) but I'm not feeling any different on T4 than I did on T3...
Craig, I know that Karen had a clear scan but a positive Tg result although i can't remember her numbers. Hopefully she will reply with what happened to her. ...
Thanks Ruth - I'll see if Karen comments on this. I'm going to ask about the Thyrogen + scan option. Seems like a sensible plan. Craig ... From: Ruth To:...
What seems totally weird to me, Craig, is that you were successfully suppressed and feeling great on just T3. Having said that our bodies do not all behave...
