Hi Pauline! I might have the same treatment soon, since you had it such a long time ago. Did they tell anything about radioactive iodine and fertility? Did you have any problems regarding this topic later on?

Thank you dear for making me feel better I was afraid and I didn't want to take it! Stay healthy 🤍

I start my treatment on Thursday 11/18/21 thank you for this video! I searched for videos like this to calm my nerves down especially with 4 kids!

You are gorgeous girly! This was in my suggestions and I was a bit confused,but I'm glad I watched anyway. Hope you are well sweetie.

Thanks for the video, it was the best and most normal radioactive iodine vlog I could find on youtube lol. I have my date coming up hopefully soon, and you definitely helped me calm my nerves. Hope all is well and your cancer has stayed away!

Me too! ❤

I’m undergoing RAi treatment next week. I’m incredibly scared. Thanks for sharing your experience

Omg..Godspeed ❤ I just love this video! This really calmed me down 😊 Unfortunately, I too have to go down the same road next month 😢 I just hope I too come out winning 💕🤞💪

Well done, I’m about to go through this soon 🥲🥲🥲🥲🥲

Thanks Eleanor, your voice and energy calms me too ! thanks for sharing! Did they talk to you about the fertility side of it? I might need to to the treatment too and not sure how it will affect fertility? needing to freeze eggs before or not to worry at all ? if you know anything about it please do share it :)) hope you are feeling well now! I see it has been 2 years for you.

Thank you so much for posting this, I will have my treatment on Monday and was a little apprehensive as to what to expect - I'm so glad I found this video, you have really put my mind at rest

Did you get it? Got mine recently

This was such a relief to watch. I am in the US and I am starting my treatment this week. I’ve searched for videos like this for reassurance.you have eased my nerves greatly. I’ve only found doctors talking about this procedure and it’s just not the same as a true patient. I will not be in the hospital for my isolation, but will be isolated at home. I pray you are still doing well. Thanks again for sharing!

lucky you! i have to do it at home. I have not see any video how to set up the room.

Thank you for the information I will go radioactive treatment this month hopefully I'll be OK soon can' I have an idea how long after this treatment until you get cancer thank you God bless you more 🙏

Thanks a lot for sharing your experience. How do you feel after 3 years? Do you still feel it’s worth having the treatment?

I had my thyroidectomy and lymph node removed a week ago. I've had no advice prior to discharge except see you in 2 weeks for a follow up. My care has been pretty poor.

I am going to hospital tomorrow for this treatment! Thank you so much for this video cause now I know what to expect! Also, did you have to put anything around your phone or computer because of radiation? Was there any procedure regarding that? :)

Good luck for your treatment! Just think of it as crossing the finish line and you’ll be free as soon as you leave! 💓 It was recommended that I put an old case over my phone and then I was able to throw it away before I left. I also just made sure that I wiped my laptop down after I used it. I was told that the radiation comes out in in sweat so you don’t pass on much through your finger tips! If you have anymore questions please don’t hesitate to send me a message on insta ☺️xxx

Hi. Where did you isolate and how many days? Because i have two kids too and I’m worried

What was your dose? Thanks for sharing

I get my 1st Thyrogen injection today, 2nd tomorrow and I'll also be admitted then ready for my treatment on Wednesday. Anything I take in with me wont be coming back out with me, clothes, toiletries, magazines etc will get destroyed. Im only allowed my phone and a charger which they'll cover in plastic, so I can take that home, but no laptop or anything is allowed. Im in from 12-18th, im dreading the boredom xx

I had the radioactive iodine treatment in 1994, this in MU Medical clinic, but back then they sent you home, after treating ,had to stay away from heart pt., Pregnant Mommys, anyone with health issues, yes I was very restricted, I give you all my prayers, I do find myself having a hard time finding Dr.s that doesn't understand ,will lower my synthroid medication, for experiment. Not good." Wish you the best in recovery". GN 🌆 Priscdilla

Hello!Did you have thyroid cancer? Recently I am diagnosed.so m asking to you

I was told i would do mine at a hotel before my surgery if i need it got the call today that yup i will need it and get to tell my doc im on disability i can NOT afford to stay in a hotel

This is something I might have to have , how is it possible to keep away from your family when you all. Live in the same small house this is what worry’s me and do you know what happens to others you are in contact for it to be so dangerous thanks for this video so helpful hope you are feeling better now

Hi! It was actually quite easy! They didn’t let me out of hospital until my radiation levels were safe enough to be around. They check your levels regularly throughout the day to make sure. Once I was out of hospital I just had to make sure I cleaned down the shower after using it and clean cutlery and kitchen utensils after cooking. I was given a booklet telling me all the information beforehand that covered everything but if you have any further questions please don’t hesitate to message me on insta as it is very overwhelming! Good luck! 💓 xx

I get my treatment Wednesday and super anxious 😟 Worried about being sent home and getting radiation everywhere as they send you home after.

Hi Karen, good luck with your treatment! I was super anxious beforehand because I really didn’t know what to expect however everything was a lot more simple than I thought. I wasn’t allowed to leave the hospital until I was safe enough to be in the house with my family and I was fortunate enough to use a separate bathroom and stayed in my bedroom for most of the time. If you keep your distance you will be fine! If you have any questions I’m here to help! 💗 xxx

Next week I have treatment. They told me to stay in hospital for five days after coming from hospital how long I should separate from my child

how long did you have to stay there? I'm so worried I have a lump on my neck and I have to go for my biopsy next week so nerve wrecking... I wish you the best

Hey! I’m from the UK so I’m grateful to say that my treatment was free. I’m not qualified to give advice as I’m not sure how things are done elsewhere however I’d suggest talking to your oncologist to discuss what your options would be? Wishing you all the best 💝 xxx

Thank you, even though this is 3 years ago, I'm wondering now in 2023 do they still keep you in the hospital during your radiation treatment isolation, because I heard you have to be at home. I'm just wondering if they go through so many precautions at the hospital in your room, how in the world would anyone be able to do this at home? I was just diagnosed with a positive result for thyroid cancer and my consultation is in a couple weeks with the surgeon, I'm totally freaking out! 🫣😱🥺
