edited March 2014 in Thyroid Cancer #1
I found out a week ago Saturday that my thyroglobulin is undetectable, for the first time in three years, which means I AM CANCER FREE!!!!!! I never thought I would hear those words. Although I know it can still come back I thank God for answering my prayers and for all the good doctors who treated me for this outcome. I can finally breathe.

I endured four surgeries and two reoccurrences in the six years since I was diagnosed with Hurthle Cell cancer. It has been a rollercoaster of emotions, but I have come out the other side a stronger person.

Never say never and never give up. There is always hope and miracles do happen.

    yes that is wonderfull news.

    myself i found out that 1 year after being declaried cancer free (and 1 year past my treatment) i will be eledgible to donate blood again. so life will continue... right now i am about 1 month since my treatment and as far as i have been told there was nothing else in my body scans to show worry and i am just waiting for the cancer free words or the like.

    glad you made it.. as i keep telling people I am a survivor and if i havent yet i will beat this
