Hello, and thank you for posting

As we are not doctors, we cannot give a medical opinion on what may be suitable for your thyroid cancer. However, it does sound like your team has discussed you and feels surgery is the best course of action at this time.

Do read about thyroid cancer treatments on our website.

Waiting for appointments and treatments to start can be incredibly difficult. People have found it helpful to focus on themselves and get into a position of wellness, both physical and mental, as much as possible. This is called prehabilitation, which you can also read about on our website, and may help you during this time of waiting.

Take care, and if you want to talk anything through do call the nurses on 0808 800 4040. Lines are open mon-fri, 9-5. 

Sarah.
