description | Before us is the story of young woman who actively monitored the condition of the thyroid gland, due to the accidental detection of antibodies to the thyroid tissue. After the detection of a tumor (7 mm), hemi thyroidectomy was conducted. For two years after the operation she has been under the care of oncologist and endocrinologist. However, despite explanations about a good prognosis of the disease, she is extremely alarmed and unjustifiably often conducts laboratory tests, ignoring the fact that both the reference range and the evaluation methods are different. It should be said that similar problems exist in all countries (Nedman C. et al., 2017) fear of relapse of the disease worries the vast majority of patients even years after its been diagnosed. People are concerned not only about the risks of thyroid cancer recurrence, but also about the risks of development of other cancers, the risks of being not able to get access to skilled care. The obvious task of a doctor is to correct a pattern of patient behavior that increases anxiety. |
