30 hours POST RAI. I did it!

It really isn't that bad right now. Luckily for me I have a computer and bed in my room.

I had a dose of 20 milicurries which from what I read is a small amount according to cancer patients.

I kept reading horror stories about RAI but right now it's not that bad. Maybe I'm not in the worst of the RAI, yet but I'm not sure.

I mean it kicks *** going back to eating whatever I want and just being able to play video games.
The bad thing is it had to be on a weekend where I got invited to my friends birthday party. Oh well, it's all good.

I would just like to thank this forum as it helped me feel like I wasn't the only one having RAI, especially me being 18.

Is 30 hours after the worst of it or no? Anyone have suggestions for me? Thanks guys.

yeah, I thought about doing that, and now your post makes my decision leaning towards it. Okay I will do it for a couple of days.

I mean 20 millicuries isn't that much from what I read.
