From host Kevin Miller: When I was 7 years old and got out of line, my parents would give me an “attitude adjustment” and make me listen to motivational speakers like Zig Ziglar. I didn’t appreciate it at the time but the experience gave me awareness of how powerful our minds and outlook on life are. I went on to become a pro athlete, have 9 kids, start 17 businesses and become addicted to performance and production. Till I burnt out. Multiple times. That started a quest to not just pursue p ...

When Leslie was diagnosed with thyroid cancer, her oncologist said, “This is the best cancer you can get.”
And while she understands in hindsight that he meant to put her at ease, in the moment, Leslie resented his delivery and wondered if he really cared.
Was he taking her situation lightly? How could any cancer be considered good?
On this episode of Tell Me More, Leslie describes the feeling of heat in her throat that persisted for four years before she was finally diagnosed with thyroid cancer.
Leslie explains what inspired her to ask for a third neck ultrasound though her doctor deemed it unnecessary, and we consider how the cancer could have been prevented from moving into her lymph nodes had it been caught sooner.
Listen in for insight into the experience of being treated with radioactive iodine and get Leslie’s advice for doctors on taking an interest when patients advocate for themselves and reassuring them that you’re committed to their care.
Key Takeaways The feeling of heat in her throat Leslie mentioned for 4 years before she got a diagnosis
How Leslie had a neck ultrasound following her wellness checks two years in a row but didn’t have her thyroid nodules biopsied
The conversation with an acquaintance that inspired Leslie to push for a third ultrasound
How Leslie was finally diagnosed with thyroid cancer via a fine needle aspiration biopsy and how her doctor delivered the news
How Leslie’s cancer could have been prevented from moving into the lymph nodes had it been diagnosed sooner
Why Leslie was baffled by having to ask the doctor for a third ultrasound
What a doctor takes into consideration before they order a given test
Why doctors say thyroid cancer is ‘the best cancer you can get’ and how that message is received by patients
Leslie’s experience of being treated with radioactive iodine and self-isolating for 7 days
Leslie’s advice for patients on telling your doctor when you’re not comfortable with how they’re handing your care
Leslie’s challenge for doctors to be interested when patients advocate for themselves
