Why post-I-131 recovery is hard to follow at home
After radioiodine therapy, thyroid levels can keep shifting for weeks, and changes in weight or appetite are easy to miss day to day.
Rechecks are often scheduled at set intervals, and it is hard to remember exactly when the last bloodwork was done or what to ask about.
Some cats need their kidney values watched once thyroid levels normalize, so scattered notes on paper make it tough to spot trends.
