    I read that thyroid problems could happen after radiation treatments from the neck up. My husband has just completed radiation and chemo treatments on 04/10/02 and I believe he may already have thyroid problem, due to tried all the time, all he has been doing for the last 2 weeks is sleep. I have asked the doctor to take a blood test friday to check his thyroid. Did you find your friend that you were looking for?

    No I haven't. Hope your husband is doing better.
