As if being diagnosed wasn't bad enough.. Now we have to talk about treatment. I have heard all the horror stories of getting sick with treatments and the sores and the time spent in treatment it's just so time consuming. Back to the doctor we go to discuss treatment options.
Options:
Surgery to cut out the tumor
Radioactive Iodine
Thyroid stimulation hormone suppression therapy
If the cancer is more advanced when diagnosed options like chemotherapy and radiation may also be used as forms of treatment.
surgery?! Radioactive?! I am never going to get used to those words. Ever.
To surgery I go I suppose. Wish me luck.
