Being so absent-minded


Had persistent cough that lead to numerous tests which found the thyroid cancer. . . I still had the cough after surgery, but now it seems to be going away.

Total thyroidectomy to remove 3 masses, on May 11, 2009

RA-131 74.4 Mci on June 5th. Side effects included swelling of my throat and neck, headache, nausea and eventually really nasty taste in my mouth. June 12th – full body scan, results were good, and follow up on July 24th with blood work.
