Guest guest Posted August 29, 2003 Report Share Posted August 29, 2003 Kudos to you, I was scheduled to run a marathon in Alaska for Team in Training with the Leukemia and Lymphoma Society for my 30th birthday. Instead, I GOT cancer for my 30th birthday. I can't imagine training right now. I had my TT in July and RAI is supposed to be at the beginning of Oct. Are you not doing the RAI? Or are they waiting until after your 2nd neck dissection? Where were your mets? That's what concerns me at this point. I know it traveled outside of my Thyroid, but they said they won't know until we do the scans where else it has gone. Ugh, the waiting game. In repsonse to your request, I'd love to support you, but all of my charitable budget has been used towards my TNT goals. Good Luck and keep us posted. in PA age 30 (6/21) dx Hashimoto's 5/2000 dx pap by FNA 6/27/03 TT 7/17/03-main lesion 2.1x1.9x1.0cm on isthmus, multi-focal-pinpoint (1-3mm) lesions throughout both lobes, 1 lymph node removed Accidentally got a parathyroid, couldn't remove from thyroid Currently on Cytomel, RAI scheduled 10/7/03 ~Our lives can change with every breathe we take... let go of the past... and embrace the future.~ Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest guest Posted August 29, 2003 Report Share Posted August 29, 2003 : As an athlete, you might be interested to know that Smyers is " one of us " (thyca survivors, that is!). is a world-class triathlete who won the Hawaii Ironman in 1995. She was diagnosed with thyroid cancer in Dec. 1999. has spoken at several of the Annual Thyca Conferences. I heard her speak at last year's L.A. Conference as she was enroute to the Ironman once again! If you need inspiration and motivation as you train for your marathon, you can find out more on Smyers by doing a google search. Best wishes, Marilyn (whose knees are too lousy for running, but is very physically active nonetheless!) Dx in 1994, papillary w/follicular variant & lung metastases. Positive scans in '94,'95,'96,'97,'98. 435mCi's RAI. Clean scans '99,'00,'02,'03...the last two scans w/Thyrogen. > hi all > i've been reading the posts for the past couple weeks. i am 24 years old and found out on 6-27-03 that i have metastatic papillary carcinoma. i had a partial thyroidectomy and a neck dissection on 8-04-03 and will have to have the same deal for the left side in december. needless to say i'm totally shocked and bummed. i am a graduate student in physical therapy and this whole lack of energy deal sucks!! anyway, i'm writing because during this whole ordeal i am attempting to train for the chicago marathon that is on october 12. i ran it last year and was already in training when i got my diagnosis. it is a much bigger challenge this year, but it is helping me mentally. ironically i was a charity runner for the american cancer society last year. i really wanted to do that this year, but did not have the time or energy to put into fundraising. my sister surprised me a couple days ago and signed me up for it and is taking care of all of the work for me!! i thought some people on this site would be interested in possibly donating since we have all been personally touched. if you are, please email me at kmcruns@n... and i can give you info on how to participate. thanks!! > kristin Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest guest Posted January 25, 2005 Report Share Posted January 25, 2005 Thanks for the welcome. I forgot to mention that I am a vegetarian and it seems like Weight Watchers is the only group that actually addresses my concerns. I am very excited about the program---of course I am new---but it seems like I can make sense out of the point system and I am also learning more about nutrition. Glad to see this group is here and I will be spending some time reading some of the messages in the archives. I read something about a chocolate tofu pie .. . .

Guest guest Posted July 22, 2006 Report Share Posted July 22, 2006 Check to see if the Y near you offers scholarships. The one I belong to does, as it's part of their mission to help people. There have been several members of my water exercise class whose fees were paid by this program. It certainly sounds like you would qualify--in fact, your stepdaughter might also be able to benefit from the Y.

Guest guest Posted July 22, 2006 Report Share Posted July 22, 2006 Tricia, call your local Y and tell them your problem. They give scholarships. I have one in DE. I am disabled and can't afford it either. try it. all they can do is refuse you. Or, if they've given away all this year's scholarships they will tell you when to apply for next year. JUDITH > Hi!

Guest guest Posted February 4, 2007 Report Share Posted February 4, 2007 It sounds like you are not on the right dosage... from what I have learned because our thyroid levels change and flux, your dosage may need to change and flux with your body's need for it. If you've stayed on this dosage for 10 years, it doesn't shock me at all that you have symptoms still. Get the referral, but before you do call and ask to speak with the doctor. If you can't, talk with his/her nurse/office manager and ask them how they treat their patient (by labs alone or along with symptoms)... do they run all thyroid tests instead of TSH alone? (T3, T4, Free T3, Free T4, antibodies, etc.)? Shamon's about.com site and a few of her books have great 'interrogation forms' for doctors. When was your last set of lab tests ran? Do you still have the results? Can you post them, with normal ranges included? Are you taking any multi-vitamins? Do they contain iron? If so, does it also have selenium? What types of foods do you eat? Do you eat a natural 'home grown' type of diet with lots of home made foods or do you eat a lot of processed foods? Do you have high cholesterol? How is your pulse rate? A normal pulse rate is between 60-104 beats per minute. Do you know how to take your Basal Body Temperature? It is a good indication to let you know if your body still isn't getting proper thyroid levels. In the old days 50s & earlier it was as one of the staple signs of hypothyroidism. Soy and products that are goitrogens (foods that are chemically structured in a way that may alter thyroid hormone output) can be bad for people with thyroid problems. If you always eat the foods and you have done this from the beginning (being medicated) your labs/dosage are formulated to function that way. Particularly if you take your dosage with food. IF you eat a diet high in soy, certain leafy green veggies like cabbage, spinach, cauliflour, etc. it can alter your thyroid output levels and absorption levels by your body so you will not get the proper dosage. Certain foods when cooked lose some if not most or all of their goitrogenic properties, it all depends on how they are cooked/processed before consumption. Usually with thyroid problems, because you will have one hormone that is out of whack, others often follow suit. The most common are the sexual hormones (adrenal hormones - cortisol, adrenaline, etc., testosterone, progestrine, progesterone, estrogen, etc.) you can have testing done by your regular doc or gyno to determine if these are off. If they are off, it would be a good idea to treat them as they may be masking or adding to what you think may be your thyroid problem. Other endocrine problems like diabetes are often a factor with thyroid disease also. Many people do well to take multi-vitamins (that don't contain soy), b-complex support for energy, brain fog, etc. liquid usually works best for most people although pill form works well to, it's just your preference. Oils like fish oil help with giving essential fatty acids and things that your body needs to function well and it can also lessen cortisol output by your adrenal glands (if they output high). Drinking around 60-80oz of water a day are great to do... it helps your body flush toxins, keeps your kidneys & bladder clean, helps you digest food easier, keeps you from getting sick from being backed up for to long.... most people don't realize the reason they have constipation is because their bodies are trying to suck what's left of the water out of their pooh because it's the closest source the body naturally has to getting water.... Oh, and for the body odor thing... this can happen because of certain foods you will eat, bacteria that grows on your body in dark moist places (like armpits & genital areas), and because of hormone imbalances. For some people, this is easily treated, for others... not so much. I found for me personally that when my thyroid levels were straightened out, I stopped being smelly... the most interesting cause I've found is that if you are around people who eat a lot of processed foods, when they sweat they smell horrible but people who eat foods with less additives and who take a more natural approach to their health care do not. Before I could apply deodorant 3-4 times a day and it wouldn't help... my body chemistry was so off... now it's a lot better. Of course.... sometimes certain deodorants can make you smell worse to! All kinds of culprits to that one... If you use deodorant with aluminum in it, (it's usually listed as the active ingredient), it has been linked to cause alzheimer's disease and can clog up your pores and lymph nodes. If you have to use it, try to use something like a deodorant crystal or crystal spray or roll on before it, as it will create a boundary around your skin and will not allow the aluminum to show up. I have heard of people using listerine as a pinch when they run out of deodorant because of it's alcoholic properties. I recommend however to not use the cinnamon kind as you will break out like nobody's business LOL. Here is an interesting patient/doctor response about basal body temp testing and thyroid testing.. http://www.thyroid-info.com/articles/shames-basaltemp.htm Here is another link on goitrogenic foods (contains soy).. http://www.whfoods.com/genpage.php?tname=george & dbid=47 Good luck, Re: newbie I was on synthroid since 8 and changed to Armour about 10 years ago.

Guest guest Posted February 4, 2007 Report Share Posted February 4, 2007 Hi Janet, welcome... I'm wondering if the dosage you were on was the correct one for you? When you are dealing with hormone replacement there isn't a set dosage, though their are general guidelines... it comes down to how well your body is utilizing the hormone that you are taking.. to be able to determine that it seems to work best by using not only lab results of the thyroid hormone levels (TSH testing alone to determine this is a waste of time and money) but also by monitoring your symptoms. Seems as though your symptoms have persisted.. the question then becomes why? Common sense says it's that your body isn't getting enough of the hormone that it needs... Is it the type of hormone you are taking? How you are taking it? Are you taking the correct amount for YOU? Are you eating the right foods, avoiding the wrong foods? Are you taking the nutritional supplements (vitamins and minerals) that will help your hormone challenged body work to it's best ability? Are you keeping doses of calcium and iron at least four hours apart from your Armour dose (if you are swallowing it)? Do you know if you have any nutritional deficiencies that are making it harder for your body to utilize the hormones that you are taking? How long since you've had labs run? Can you show us the results, with the lab's ranges, so that we can see what things look like? I'm not sure how much reading you've done yet... we've got a web page up that runs through some of the basics of the hormones, meds and labs so that what we're talking about here will make more sense to you, you're more than welcome to swing by and take a look.. www.thyrophoenix.com/thyroid_101.htm Topper () On Sat, 03 Feb 2007 21:34:31 -0000 " janetvisser " JANETVISSER@...> writes: > Hi.

Guest guest Posted February 4, 2007 Report Share Posted February 4, 2007 A good article - as far as it goes. But it should be noted that individuals differ in their reation to goitrogens. Some people can tolerate vaste quantities of one product, but react badly to just a trace of another. And cooking doesn't always help. Also, not everybody is sensitive to all of them. The best way to find out is to illiminate all of them from your diet for a couple of weeks, then reintroduce them one at a time and see how you feel. Because, it has to be said, that a reaction to a goitrogen (especially soy) can be almost immediate (within a couple of hours), giving flu-like symptoms. I know that some people refuse to believe this and call it an allergic reaction but it is, nevertheless, a goitrogenic reaction. Just thought I'd stress that, for what it's worth.
