I was diagnosed with papillary thyroid cancer in 1997.  I had a total thyroidectomy along with some lymph nodes removed.  In 2000, I had a radical right neck dissection and had more lymph nodes removed.  After my TT, over a period of about 4 years I had 5 radioactive iodine treatments.

I'm a healthy, vibrant and joyful person who owns a Pilates & Gyrotonic studio near the beach in Santa Cruz CA. Never having been sick in my life, I was shocked to find a lump in my right breast in June 2008 and was diagnosed with Stage 1 Grade 3 Triple Negative Breast Cancer. I had a lumpectomy in June 2008 and the aggressive cancer spread to lymph nodes requiring a second surgery in...

My name is Ron Sparks and I have cancer. Sounds like a 12-step program, huh? Being diagnosed with cancer has changed my life. It's been an incredible journey and it's not nearly over yet. Not even close. As a writer, I have a cathartic need to express myself when I am in trouble - so it's no surprise that I blog profusely about my cancer and my recovery. I was diagnosed with squamous...

Three months after my first child was born, I was diagnosed with sarcoidosis, an autoimmune disease. Although sarcoidosis spontaneously remits in many cases, I developed a chronic form of the disease in multiple organs-- my brain, heart, lungs, liver, cranial nerves, lymph nodes, and bones. Becoming chronically ill at the same time that I am learning the ropes of motherhood has been like...

There are so many C words that make your heart flutter like...couture, cashmere, or better yet closet!

I am a TV personality, producer and designer. I am the creator of an illuminated clutch line called www.solasfashion.com. As a...

I live in the UK and found this site by chance. Its fun, interesting and will hopefully give me the impetus to do more exercise.  I've had Crohn's disease for over 20 years. I also have  Chronic Fatigue Syndrome and an underactive thyroid gland. I have great support from my doctor and have just tested positive for Rheumatoid factor. I've read up on the subject but still don't...

I am a surviver of a rare disease called Conn's Disease, or primary hyperaldosteronism. I had it for at least 8 years according to my endocrinologist and surgeon. Last year I had an adrenalectomy to remove the gland and tumor, which cured and removed the horrible side effects that go with this insideous disease. Today, I feel more like myself than I have in 10 years, and I encourage anyone...
