An ENT (ear nose and throat) doctor would be a good start

Hi - sorry, it's been a crazy day and I just got on the site.

I had a sore throat after RAI for a few months.  Where is your throat sore?  It is common for the thyroid area to be sore for a few months after surgery (mine especially hurt after sneezing or trying to lift my head off the pillow).

My upper neck/throat hurt after the RAI - mostly from salivary glands.

Did you talk to your doctor?  Have you been checked since the RAI?   You need to have your labs checked every 3 - 6 months so make an appointment and have your doctor check your throat (inside and out).  Your doctor will be able to tell much better than us if it is sore from the surgery, the RAI, postnasal drip, or (as ChitChat said) gastric reflux which is a common problem with many of us too.

Best of everything
