Hey Waves,

Call you endo (or ENT) and get a complete thyroid panel including thyroglobulin.  That's a good first step!

Hopefully it's just allergies!!!

The only way to know would be a thyroglobulin test and an uptake scan.

What makes you think you may have metastases and what type of cancer were you diagnosed with?

Utahmomma
papillary carcinoma '03
recurrence and RAI '06 and probably '08
three sisters with papillary carcinoma (one with three recurrences and distant metastases - three doses of RAI)
