Here we go again. Update on cancer

Went back to see my endocrinologist yesterday and got more bad news. The blood test they use to look for cancer came back elevated again. They took me off my thyroid medication immediately and will be starting the low iodine diet soon. With no thyroid and no medication this is going to be a long few weeks. I will have to go for another round of radioactive iodine soon and probably another surgery this fall. Can't wait for that. Could use prayers from all of you guys.
Thanks everybody.

Sorry to hear this news Nate, I'm not sure what it is about this month and cancer but it is just seeming like they don't go together.  If I can do anything let me know.

Prayers heading your way.

Headed your way.  I hope there is a bright side to this in your future.  I have lived the scare of Cancer and surgery.  It's not easy, but you can do it.
