Radiation treatment for hyperthyroidism is meant to take effect gradually. According to ThyroidAwareness.com, "The radioactive iodine is given by mouth, usually in capsule form, and is quickly absorbed from the bowel. It then enters the thyroid cells from the bloodstream and gradually destroys them. Maximal benefit is usually noted within three to six months."
Brachytherapy IS radiation treatment. Irradiated seeds are placed into or next to a cancerous area. These seeds are then irradiated causing the cancer to die.
The radiation usually begins immediately or soon after quadrantectomy, and involves a schedule of five days of treatment a week for five to six weeks
Yes, it does. Uncontrolled ie untreated hyperthyroidism may cause irregular periods of shorter duration than is normal for the woman in question. The irregular period is also associated with lower fertility. Hyperthyroidism will not cause painful periods if the woman used to have pain-free ones previously. And as soon as the medication is working, her period will start to go back to normal.
It is essential to begin treatment absolutely as soon as RMSF is seriously suspected. Delaying treatment can result in death.
bump pumpy bump.... I'm determined to find out... hyperthyroidism, diahhrea... it' caught my attention. Be back soon.
What kind of treatment? If you went in for radiation treatment and the source was external (meaning you were positioned and the source was set up and/or moved around you), the radiation passes into you and then it's gone. You don't walk out "radioactive" after this kind of treatment. (Proton treatment is slightly different.) The same idea applies to "seeds" of radioisotopes put in the body up next to the tissue to be treated. When removed, the radiation goes with them. If you have been given radiation treatment by virtue of oral or intravenous preparations, the time interval will vary as the dose and the particular isotope you were given. The different radioisotopes behave differently. With a bit more information, a bit less general an answer may have been able to have been supplied.
This is quite common and usually a side effect of the radiation therapy. Please see your Oncologist and discuss this with them because once they explain this to you it will put your mind to rest. God Bless & Get Well Soon!
Marijuana has a number of important medical uses. It is an extremely effective treatment for nausea - possibly the best available treatment for patients who suffer from severe nausea (which is a common side effect of chemotherapy, for example). It also is a useful treatment for glaucoma.
Get antibiotic treatment as soon as possible.
Part of the radiation is immediately radiated back into space. The remainder is absorbed; most of what is absorbed will be radiated back into space soon (as the materials heat up, they radiate out more infrared radiation).
