Thank you so much for your help, never did this before and am so looking for some support
I had the Thyrogen shots this past Monday and Tuesday. My thyroid was removed in May of this year due to papillary cancer that spread to couple lymphnodes. I have nothing to compare as this is my first experience. Mid day after receiving shots by body got very heavy, nauseated, just out of it but by night I was better. The second shot same. RAI pill Wednesday and had scans Thursday and Saturday. I am waiting to hear about i131 therapy and if anyone could share their experiences it would be great
Thank you for responding so quickly to my question. This is a big relief to me knowing that the majority of people who receive thyrogen injections do not have severe side effects.
I have used Thyrogen 4 times in the last 3 years and haven't had any side effects with it.

I had them and it was SO much better than going hypo. However, they made me a bit nauseated. But that was my worse symptom when I was hypo. The majority of people that I've seen out here that have had it have had no ill side effects though. Good luck to you!
