I had thyroid cancer in September and following surgery with the normal iodine treatment this is what I have experienced. I have been hospitalized 6 times for dehydration and nausea. I consistently vomit everything that I eat or drink. I have had a CAT scan, blood work, upper GI test and all those are normal. I am desperate for a diagnosis and recovery. I am 58 years old and have been in pretty good health. Although following the iodine treatment I had swelling of hands, feet, legs and face-I was given a diaretic for that. I was also on HCTZ/ LINSINOPRIL for the last 2 years. I am grasping at straws and at the mercy of the medical professionals. I don't know where else to turn or what other tests should be done. I believe in my doctors and know they have my best interest. I have lost 32 pounds since this has started, very weak, and unable to do normal everyday living.
