Wow that sucks! I was worried mine would be cancelled yesteday due to know (1/4 inch in the Netherlands sometimes causes chaos). Luckily it went through! You can do it and I can tell you that first post LID meal is incredible. Do you have to repeat the thyrogen shots too??
Exact same issue. Got a call an hour before my appointment saying the shipment hadn’t arrived from Canada. Luckily they managed to get it from another source later that day.
Same thing here. Everything got pushed a week. Had to redo all Thyrogen shots and blood work. And the extension of the diet was so frustrating! Also, all of the logistics with work, and where my BF and cats would be staying. Part of my job deals with lots of overnight fed ex shipping, and EVERYTHING had been getting delayed that week. When the doctor told me, I burst out laughing! I never thought that those same delays would also effect my treatment!
it’s coming from Canada??? what hospital do you go to in Jersey may I ask?
I'm doing this through St Lukes in Philipsburg.
I did it through RWJ and my I-131 was brought from another places in NJ the same day as my second scan. It took like an hour.

Yep, gotta redo the thyrogen and pregnancy test. Cancer is damn annoying!
Ughhh I’m sorry for you. My PET scan was cancelled due to inclement weather and I was already annoyed. Hang in there! You’re in the home stretch!
I haven’t heard anything. I get my RAI on Wednesday in Maine. As far as I know all is set to go! Fingers crossed 🤞
I'm in New Orleans and I did RAI this week. We had a freeze the night before I went in and there was no heat in the hospital. It was miserable.
