Annual check up 2 years since thyroid was removed

It has been two years since I was diagnosed with thyroid cancer and had surgery. I did a blood test and my endocrinologist (Dr Susan Maturlo) told me that I needed a higher does of Synthroid. So I started taking the 225 a day instead of 200 mcg. She also told me that she wanted me to do an ultrasound again. I need to do the low iodine diet for the third time (its an annual tradition now) and do one more scan to make sure I am clean. ARGH! Not what I would prefer to do, but I guess safer than sorry right?

In the last 6 months I have been introduced to doTERRA essential oils. They are natural oils from plants. They have medicinal properties and are natural remedies to hundreds of ailments (see my blog for that at www.doterraexperiences.blogspot.com ). The Frankincense oil has helped many people with cancer so I decided to start taking around 3-4 drops a day under my tongue. This way I can prevent cancer from starting anywhere else and kill any off that may have started. This way I can ensure my scan at the end of January is clean. For now I will have a fun Christmas and Hanukkah and New Years and save the low iodine diet till Jan.
