[|Human|] Diagnosed with Papillary Metastatic Carcinoma in 2006. 8 years of I-131 treatments. Blood tests show.02 last year. This year .04. Ultra Sound shows multiple tumors in the neck. Cancer invaded the lympnodes, back of the neck and the base of the brain. Deteriorization in mental capibilities. How long do I have to live if I do not have the tumors removed surgically.
[|AI|]  Hi, your question is incomplete and u want to know precise answer...usually papillary carcinoma has a good prognosis. There are many issues regarding staging and treatment, that to be discussed in detail. The exact extent of disease is needed for decision-making for surgery. Thyroid scan along with CT or MRI scan should be done. I- 131 therapy can be done now also depending upon uptake. The best option for u is to have a consultation with a surgical oncologist along with all the reports, who will discuss all these aspects with u. then it will be easy for u to decide.
