| Living with thyroid cancer |
I found a reddit community for thyroid cancer and I’m talking about my rare type on it and giving my WHOLE story like as detailed as I can. It’s like I’m writing a novel lol.
Don't ever tell a person with thyroid cancer that they have the best kind of cancer. I'm in pain almost every day.

Feels like I’ve been training for social distancing for years. I’ve had isolation during treatments of radioactive iodine (thyroid cancer), have physical limitations that make it difficult to get around. So, here’s my advice to the newbies: #COVID2019
Today marks my 3rd year post operation from my thyroid cancer. Will share some of my before and after photos in my stories. I’m just so happy that I’m alive and healthy from my own perspective.

| Diagnosis |
My throat can hurt and the first thing on Google is throat cancer, thyroid cancer, or swollen lymph nodes from lymphoma or HIV
Real pissed my old endocrinologist never did an ultrasound on my thyroid or even TOLD me that Hashimoto’s makes me way more susceptible to thyroid cancer. My new doc was confused why I’d never had a thyroid ultrasound for that exact reason.

| Risk factor and prevention |
Listening to the father-in-law decided to stop his diabetic medication because it may cause thyroid cancer.
Thyroid cancer diagnoses are up to three times more common in 9/11 first responders than the general population. However, the increased cancer rate may be due to over screening, according to a new study in @JAMAInternalMed.

| Symptoms |
I struggle to lose weight. I have an under active thyroid due to thyroid cancer. Some people can't help being overweight.
I've gained a lot of weight because I had thyroid cancer and it caused me to gain almost 75 lbs. I'm a big lady. 250 lbs. My husband says it's just more to love that's all. But I can't bear to look at myself in the mirror.

| Prevalence and incidence |
The number of people diagnosed with #thyroid cancer has more than doubled worldwide since 1990. Much of the increase has been fueled by a rapid rise of #cancer cases in countries in South-East Asia, which accounted for more than 40% of global diagnoses.
Thyroid cancer remains the highest prevailing endocrine malignancy, and its incidence rate has progressively increased in the previous years. #Thyroidcancer

| Prognosis |
Papillary and Follicular thyroid is in general excellent. Factors include age, aggressiveness, metastasis. Medullary Thyroid cancer may have a good prognosis too but should be evaluated for other endocrine problems. Anaplastic thyroid cancer may have a poor outcome.
