I woke up this morning to a dry mouth and my tongue felt like it had been burned. It’s worse towards the front of my tongue. My sense of taste is almost completely gone now. It’s been 9 days since I had my radioactive iodine treatment. I thought I was one of the lucky ones and missed out on side-effects (aside from fatigue). Why are they just showing up now? I’m totally bummed about this and hope it doesn’t last long. And, I hope other side-effects don’t show up.

The same thing happened to me! My tongue stayed “burned” for quite a few weeks, but that was the last side effect that I experienced! Hang in there!!
