Has anyone tried chemo pills for thyroid cancer that spread to lungs?
Community Member
a month agoI am dealing with differentiated thyroid carcinoma along with some papillary. We attempted RAI in hopes of it (maybe)knocking out both cancers. No luck. A new nodule has shown up in lungs now (.03mm- tiny) so Doc is ordering Chemo in a pill. Has anyone tried or been through this?? Any remarks about it?

a month agoOral chemotherapy treatments can be an important option when other approaches haven't achieved the desired results. Many community members have shared experiences with various pill-form treatments for thyroid cancer, and responses can vary quite a bit from person to person. Consider connecting with others here who may have similar treatment experiences, and don't hesitate to discuss any concerns or questions about side effects with your medical team before starting.
