Post thyroidectomy
Hello, I had my completition thyroidectomy on Monday, but unfortunately had a hematoma after surgery so was taken back into theatre on Monday evening, bleeding stopped and an extra couple of clips placed on the arteries. In comparison to my lobectomy I’m exhausted, and as pictures show extremely bruised

Help with Blue Horizon Thyroid Test Results
I wonder if someone would be able to tell me what my test results mean. In October I had a total thyroid lobectomy to remove a 6cm lump, which was benign. Since having the operation my TSH was 5.46 (range 0.27 to 4.2). I was started on 50mg of levo. Last week, I had a blood test at my consultants

Lung transplant
This week my lung specialist asked me if I would want to have a lung transplant. So I am going to go to Toronto and meet with the transplant team and see what a lung transplant is all about. So my question for everyone is, if you had a chance to get a lung transplant would you get one done, and why ?

Tarceva scalp
I am a near 10 year lung cancer survivor. The last 4 1/2 with stage 4 NSCLC, currently in remission. Have taken Tarceva since Sept of 2014 and had never connected the scabbing on the top of my head as being Tarceva side effect. The responses here are quite interesting. I’ve always thought it was from

Lung Transplant assessment / LVRS
If you have LVRS can it make or cause problems if you have a Lung Transplant later ? I’m about to see my surgeon later this month ( I think about LVRS ) but have just received a letter today from my consultant saying I may be better off having a Lung Transplant assessment so feeling a little confused

Lung cancer stage 111b
Well after my #3 of keytruda I've just had a Ct scan. I'm very scared but trying to be optimistic get the results on the 9th and if the immunotherapy is working will get #4 treatment on the 10th. The waiting is terrible praying each day it's working. How do others cope advice would be very gratefully
