3rd RAI Mon

[Guest guest]

Deb, I have finally found someone who gets a high dose of RAI as well. My

last was 431. Why so high for you? I don't know why mine was so much other

than the fact that I was a stage 3. Good luck on Monday. from CT

Hello everyone,

just a quick update

I got the results of my Tg Friday it is at 6.3 off meds. Last time off meds was

6.8. I had 24 hour uptake Saturday. It was only .5%. Is that because I have

had a subtotal thyroidectomy? This hospital will administer doses of RAI up to

500mci. I have my full body scan Mon & will be receivng treatment (3rd time for

RAI) due to the elevated Tg.

Good luck to all of the rest of you going in for your scans
