Guest guest Posted February 21, 2002 Report Share Posted February 21, 2002 I will find out Terry as he didn't say and me being new to all this didn't ask. I heard that one lady in town had RAI and twelve months later had it again. They maintain it didn't work the first time. I actually met her last weekend. She told me also that she had a massive goiter. She said she stayed away from her two small daughters for 3 weeks each time. She said she is great now and apart from remembering her daily medication she is doing fine. She said the only problem she seems to have is with her weight going up and down. So here I am telling my local doctor I'm not having RAI and she's had it twice. Talk about a mind blow out.

Guest guest Posted February 21, 2002 Report Share Posted February 21, 2002 Hi Jody He is just a really lovely person. He is always available and starts each day at 8.00am. He is the traditional old fashion doctor. He is about 57 years old and Australian Chinese. He also does acupuncture. We have often called in after hours and he has done the same here. Yes very lucky indeed.
