[|Human|] I have thyroid cancer that spread into the lymphs and the outer muscle of my neck. I had my thyroid removed in November along with lymphs and tissues of the neck. I had radioactive iodine treatments in January. I am loosing my hair and I have an enlarged taste bud that wont go away on the tip of my tongue, are these all symptoms of my cancer?
[|AI|]  Hello Post surgery you can get weakness and tiredness. For your thyroid cancer post treatment you should maintain followup with your physician. On follow up they will do measurement of TSH, Thyroglobulin levels and anti thyroglobulin antibody testing. Based on reports further followup or treatment will be decided. Hair loss may be due to stress. RAI treatment can cause metallic taste for few weeks and swollen salivary glands but swelling on tip of tongue is unlikely. You should get it checked if required excision can be done. As such cancer or RAI will not cause this type of swelling on tip of tongue. Hope this answers your query
