Question by Cameo: Thyroid cancer? My mom has to drink “Nuclear Dye”?
My mom went to the doctor about a and a half ago and the doctor said her thyroid seemed to be a bit ‘enlarged’. She went and had a ultrasound done and there was a yellow splotch (nodules). The doctor called my mom and said shes going “to need to have some tests done”. Tomorrow, she has to go drink some ‘Nuclear Dye’? Then has to go back 6 hours later? Then maybe again Friday? What is the point of this dye?

Also, I looked up the signs and symptoms of thyroid cancer and the only one that matches her is coughing and neck pain. My mom has a titanium plate in her neck and has had 2 neck operations so that cancels out the neck pain, and my mom has asthma which ALSO cancels out the coughing. She always feels fine. In fact she hasn’t felt poorly for a LONG time.

an addiction to anything that catches my attention in that way….like there’s things that give me a high and it literally feels addicting. like I’ll feel obsessed & in love with it in a good way & it’ll give me anadrenaline rush even though it’s not really an adrenaline-giving type of thing.
