Anyone else?  Hi there. I had a round of RAI March 24th of this year and had a sore throat with it. I'm pretty sure that is a common side effect.I too felt terribly nauseated and actually threw up the 2nd and third day first thing in the morning. I think that is sude effect too. I have 4 children and it has been very difficult to get through this.I'm starting to think that this will take more time than I thought to feel "normal" again. The sore throat and nausea were gone the within about a week after RAI, so hopefully that will get better for you soon. Feel free to PM me if you just want to compare notes or talk to someone who understands first hand. Hang in there, I hope your scan comes back clean!!  AMIGLOWINGYET Sat, 19 Apr 2008 00:00:00 GMT I actually thought I had strep and went to see the dr.  I guess it isn't, cause he never called back.  Maybe it is a side effect.  I can't wait til this is over and I hope my scan was clean.  I will find out more when I see my oncologist on Tues.  Mama2three Sun, 20 Apr 2008 00:00:00 GMT
