It was discovered that I had thyroid cancer when I was diagnosed with MM (June 2023). I had my thyroid removed (in October 2023) 4 weeks before my Stem cell transplant (November 2023). Now it appears my thyroid cancer may have returned due to extremely elevated thyroid hormone levels in my bi-weekly blood tests. I have a PET scan next week.

Thank you for responding. Did the docs treat you for myeloma while they treated the lung nodules?

I developed 2 lung nodules that were cancerous and treated. The doctors tell me they were not related to the myeloma.
