Hi I had a total thyroidectomy 12 weeks ago due to Graves disease. At my post op I was told that they found a tumour that was malignant. It was fairly small but had breached the thyroid and possibly spread to lymph nodes and nearby tissue.
Since then I have had an ultrasound and the consultant is happy that there are no lymph nodes involved and now I am waiting to find out if I need RAI.
I feel like Im not coping well, everyone says its the good cancer and I feel guilty for feeling like I do. I haven't been back to work since my surgery Im not sure if I will be able to cope.
Anyone else had thyroid cancer?
