I just got discharged from the hospital after a three-day stay for the thyrogen-stimulated RA-131 whole body scan. Why did I have this so soon? Supposedly, WBS is done annually for post thyroidectomy and post RAI. My endocrinologist ordered this because at seventh month post RAI, i felt palpitation and discomfot on the right side of my neck where the operated site is. It felt like there is a scab growing in my throat on the right side. So, my endocrinologist and my ENT surgeon planned to have the WBS scan earlier to compare the scan eight months ago to present. I have yet to receive the result of my scan today. Praying all are negative.
