Great Story! I've been having all kinds of symptoms for years. Finally found a primary physician, and an endocrinologist who listen to me, did the blood workup, and tests. Diagnosed with toxic multinodular adenoma. I've also had choking issues, difficult to breathe, constant feeling you have something stuck in your throat, and unable to sleep. December 1, 2022, I'll have surgery.
Be proactive on your medical! If you have a doctor who doesn't listen, find another.

Did you take a vaccine before your thyroid cancer diagnosis?

Oh lord, don't start🙄

[@benjaminashery7728]

why would you react that way. I know three very close people to me who were diagnosed with thyroid cancer and all of them either had flu or covid shot within less than year of diagnosis, so please don't jump to conclusions that I'm some conspiracy theorist because the truth will soon come out of how vaccines have damaged entire generations.@@e.williams13
