Welcome beth! You had cancer of the thymus? Have you had radiation therapy? What med are you on? Hopefully Brennan, Annie, Becky or Neutro will be able to help with your question......I had my thymus removed but dod not have cancer.
I am so sorry to hear you aren't feeling well. Do you have a good dr? Can't wait to hear from you! Erin

I have read if they don't get all of it that part of it can grow back. I guess a CT scan would show that.

Hi ebethbb2,
Welcome to the group! I also read that if any was missed it could grow back, but it dosen't happen very often. Are you concerned that this has happened to you? I would think a CT scan would be able to confirm that. When did you have your thymectomy? Would like to know more of your story when you feel comfortable. Everyone here is very supportive and helpful. Hope to hear from you. Take care. Hugs, Pat |
