Scott had his three month post-op labs done and his thyroid levels are finally good!!!!! We have worked on getting to this point for over two years now, since they removed his thyroid, and never dreamed it would take so much work. He's yo-yoed up and down and we've changed his Synthroid dosing several times. But, he is feeling great now and we are thrilled he's leveled off and we're finally at a good dose!
His calcitonin levels (markers for MC) are still about the same. We were hoping they would drop off, but no need to worry too much until after we hit the six month mark. We're in the process of consulting with some other docs from MD Anderson again regarding the whole situation, just to get their opinion and see if they have any other ideas. As of right now though we don't really foresee any big changes in the plan and are just hanging out.
Thanks for the continued thoughts and prayers! Hopefully there won't be much to report for a few more weeks.
