I just keep forgetting to ask her the type. last week they said its going well but they need to take breaks every 8 weeks so that she doesnt react to the other medecine like she did 2 months ago
i don't know ANYTHING in this type of situation. but what i do know is, no one is lying and it take that extremely personal.
awww dont take it personal, im just trying to help
im a doctor, a doctor has to have in mind that a patient might be lying, they do for various reasons and its a lot more common than you might think
!
what i do find weird is this: histological type is the most important thing for the prognosis of thyroid cancer that a patient can easily find out, its kinda weird to forget to ask that
you are probably telling the truth because some types of thyroid cancer are linked to celiac disease, but since there is the highest probability that its papillary (which is the easiest treatable cancer of them all), you should be rushing to know the type! not knowing anything in this case is weird, people usually swarm us with papers and ask about what everything on them means
ask about the type, grading, drugs shes using (what you mentioned sounds like chemo, thats rare in thyroid cancers as well)
