John Midgley
Hi Everyone, I am so sorry to tell you all that our beloved Dr John Midgley passed away peacefully on Saturday afternoon. I am so saddened by this news, as I know many of you will be. He worked so hard with his colleagues to make things better for thyroid patients. He will be sadly missed on this

cateract surgery
Hello: I’m a little worried about having cateract surgery as I like most have tremor or dyskinesia. The doctor asked could I be still. Funny. Anyone experience this? Any thoughts? Thanks.

Road blocks
Hi all,I thought I'd update you all. I went into hospital in the 20/02 to have my second last chemo before the BMT. Upon admission, I had a fever. After 4 days of fevers and a rash from head to toe, the doctors elected to postpone the BMT. So now the search is on to find out what drugs didn't agree
