Anyone go to Mayo?

Well, after three consecutive years of positive cancer screens and treatments, I am waiting on my TSH to become appropriate for my fourth.  If this years' is positive, I have spoken to my doctor and it has been decided that we will try to get into Mayo Clinic in Minnesota for their new Alcohol ablation treatment for resisitant, recurrent thyroid cancers.  Was wondering if anyone has does this treatment?

Thanks,

Nicki

Waiting for thyroglobulin results (not doing scan b/c last years was negative until treatment dose administered but elevated thyroglobulin prompted treatment)
