,

I'm so sorry that you are having to face all of this. I will keep you in m=

y

prayers.

I''m wondering if you could share some more history of your situation like=

type

of thyca, treatment doses, and scan results. Is it possible that some of t=

he

mets existed prior to any RAI treatment, but was not identified? Did the d=

oc in

FL feel like the fibrosis interfered with the RAI treatment doing it's job?=

Your

situation sounds quite out of the ordinary. I'm glad that you are now with=

a

doctor that you feeel comfortable with.

I hope that you get a bit of good news in a couple of weeks. Take care.
