    I had Rny 3 years ago. All is well with that.
     I had my thyroid removed and 4 lymph nodes in my neck October 2011 because of Papilary /folicular cancer .  I have to have the radiation treatment and was wondering if anyone has information  or gone throug this . Wondering which type of  radiation treatment  is best ,liquid or pill form becauase of the absorbtion problems we can have? My Gastro and Oncology  Doctors said they -THINK- it's ok to do the pill... both said they have never treated a RNY patient with  this type cancer. I cant find anything on line... Studies ect and  "I think it's ok" from my Doctors just does not sit well with me. Any help would be great! Thanks!

     Hey!  I had RNY 2 years ago and just got diagnosed with Papillary Thyroid cancer.  Did you have a thyroidectomy?  How was it?

    Just a bit scared right now.

    Anyways, my Doctor told me they would do the injection for me, not the pill - what did you end up doing?

    Thanks!
