[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]The symptoms sound like anxiety to me -- I've had similar. Also, if your thyroid is wacked out it could be affecting your heart rate. [b] Thyroid cancer doesn't metastasize. My SIL had it and it is a pain in the ass, but completely treatable.[/b] People get asthma at any age. I have heard of plenty of women diagnosed in middle age.[/quote] I know you mean well, PP, and I agree that she's probably just fine and it's not cancer causing these symptoms... but this statement is not entirely true and it's worth noting. Most people get papillary thyroid cancer and I imagine that's what your SIL dealt with BUT there are 3 other types of thyroid cancer that CAN metastasize. Mine was follicular and it could certainly spread if not treated and followed closely. OP, please do see an endo to get the full picture and hopefully this will all be nothing serious at all.[/quote]
