  • Welcome to Cancer Chat Hhu123

    I am so sorry that your husband has had a reoccurrence of medullary thyroid cancer. I hope he is recovering well from the surgery but it must have been devastating news to be told that he can't have radiotherapy this time.

    I hope you will meet others here who have been in a similar situation and been told that they were not able to receive radiotherapy. If you live in the UK, our nurses are also available on this free number 0808 800 4040 if you want to talk things through with them. Their line is open Monday to Friday from 9am to 5pm.

    Best wishes to you and your husband,

    Lucie, Cancer Chat Moderator
