A member asked:
What can i eat after i finished the low-iodine-diet? i had papillary thyroid cancer. do i have to avoid anything or eat like a normal person? thanks!

Why?: Were you on a low iodine diet for a test? Did you get a partial or total thyroidectomy? Ordinarily you should be able to eat anything. You would need to take any thyroid replacement pills they give you everyday. You would need your TSH level and Thyroglobulin screened periodically. Hopefully, given how young you are, you have an endocrinologist who has also screened for MEN.
