Ngaba ugqirha ukuxelele ukuba i-thyroid gland yakho isebenza kakhulu (i-Hyperthyroidism)? Okanye ngaba uthethe ngomhlaza we-thyroid? Olunye unyango oluphumelelayo olucetyiswa ngoogqirha kwiimeko ezinjalo lunyango lwe-iodine olusebenzisa i-radioactive. Kodwa kuqhelekile ukuba soyike kancinci xa sisiva igama elithi "radioactive," akunjalo? Kodwa oku akuyonto yokoyika. Olu lunyango olukhuselekileyo olujolise ngqo kwiiseli ze-thyroid kuphela. Ngoko masithethe ngayo yonke into ngokucacileyo nangokulula namhlanje.

Ngamafutshane, yintoni unyango lwe-radioactive iodine (RAI)?

I-thyroid gland entanyeni yethu ifuna isondlo esibizwa ngokuba yi-"iodine" ukuze senze iihomoni ze-thyroid. Sidla ngokufumana le iodine ekutyeni esikutyayo, ingakumbi ityuwa ene-iodine.

Kolu nyango, sinika umzimba i-iodine (ebizwa ngokuba yi-Iodine-131) apho songeze khona ipropati ekhethekileyo ye-radioactive. I-thyroid gland iyayithanda kakhulu i-iodine. Ke ngoko, le iodine ikhethekileyo ifunxwa ngqo. Emva koko, ngenxa ye-radioactivity yaloo iodine , kuphela iiseli ezisebenzayo kakhulu okanye iiseli zomhlaza kwi-thyroid gland ezigcinwa ngokukhetha kwaye zitshatyalaliswe. Oku akunampembelelo ingako kwezinye iiseli emzimbeni. Oku kudla ngokunikezelwa njengekhaphu okanye njengolwelo.

Kukweziphi iimeko apho olu nyango lucetyiswa khona?

Olu nyango lusetyenziswa kakhulu kwiimeko ezimbini zonyango.

1. I-Hyperthyroidism

Ngamanye amaxesha yonke i-thyroid gland ivelisa iihomoni ezininzi kakhulu. Oku kukwabizwa ngokuba yi-"Graves' disease". Okanye i-gland inokuba namaqhuqhuva ize isebenze kakhulu. Kwiimeko ezinjalo:

Ukuba amayeza e-antithyroid awasebenzi okanye awukwazi ukuwasebenzisa.
Ukuba ukwenza utyando (i-Thyroidectomy) kuyingozi ngokusekelwe kwimeko yakho yempilo.
Ukuba ugqirha ugqiba kwelokuba le yeyona ifanelekileyo ngenxa yezinye izizathu.

Emva kolu nyango, i-thyroid gland yakho iya kukhubazeka ngonaphakade, ngoko ke kuya kufuneka uthathe iipilisi ze-thyroid hormone (iLevothyroxine) yonke imihla ubomi bakho bonke. Kulula kakhulu kwaye kuyalawuleka.

2. Ezinye iintlobo zomhlaza we-thyroid

Olu nyango luphumelela kakhulu kwiintlobo zomhlaza we-thyroid ezibizwa ngokuba yi-'Papillary' kunye ne-'Follicular'.

Ukutshabalalisa naziphi na iiseli zomhlaza ezincinci eziseleyo emva kotyando.
Ukuba umhlaza usasazeke (usuqhelile) ukuya kwiindawo ze-lymph nodes okanye kwezinye iindawo zomzimba, zitshabalalise ezo seli.

Kubalulekile: Olu nyango alusebenzi kwiintlobo zomhlaza we-thyroid ezibizwa ngokuba yi-'Anaplastic' kunye ne-'Medullary', njengoko zingayifunxi i-iodine.

Ngaba kukho abantu abangafanelekanga ukuba baphathwe ngolu hlobo?

Ewe, abanye abantu abanikwa olu nyango.

Kwabomama abakhulelweyo: I-iodine ekhupha imisebe inokunqumla i-placenta ize ichaphazele umntwana osesibelekweni.
Kwabomama abancancisayo.
Kwabo banesifo esibi kakhulu samehlo e-thyroid (i-Graves' ophthalmopathy).
Kubantu abanezinga eliphezulu kakhulu le-hormone ye-thyroid (i-thyrotoxicosis enzima).
Kwabo bahlanzayo okanye barhudayo (kuba iyeza linokuphuma emzimbeni ngokukhawuleza).

Ulungiselela njani ngaphambi konyango?

Ugqirha wakho uza kukuchazela zonke iinkcukacha malunga noku kwangaphambili. Ngokuqhelekileyo baya kukuxelela ukuba wenze izinto ezinje:

Uvavanyo lwegazi: Jonga amanqanaba ehomoni ye-thyroid.
Ukuyeka amayeza: Ukuba usela amayeza okulawula i-thyroid yakho, anjengePropylthiouracil okanye iMethimazole, uza kucelwa ukuba uyeke ukuwasebenzisa malunga neveki ngaphambi konyango.
Ukutya okungenazo iodine: Kucetyiswa ukuba utye ukutya okungenazo iodine iveki enye okanye ezimbini. Oku kuthetha ukunciphisa ukutya izinto ezifana netyuwa ene-iodine, ukutya kwaselwandle kunye neemveliso zobisi.
Inaliti ye-TSH: Ngamanye amaxesha, inaliti ye-thyroid stimulating hormone (TSH) inokunikwa ukunceda i-thyroid gland ukuba ifunxe i-iodine ngcono.
Uvavanyo lokukhulelwa: Oku kuya kuqinisekisa ukuba awukhulelwanga ngaphambi konyango.

Emva konyango... ezona zinto zibalulekileyo ekufuneka uzilumkele!

Le yinxalenye yonyango ekufuneka uyinike ingqalelo kakhulu. Kwiintsuku ezimbalwa emva konyango, umzimba wakho uya kukhupha inani elincinci le-radioactivity (ingakumbi kumchamo wakho, ukubila, kunye namathe). Nangona oku kungonakalisa kuwe, akulunganga kwabanye, ingakumbi abafazi abakhulelweyo kunye nabantwana abancinci . Ke ngoko, kufuneka ulandele imiyalelo kagqirha ngokuchanekileyo.

Icebiso ekufuneka lilandelwe	Izinto ekufuneka ziqwalaselwe ngokukodwa
Ukuhlala kude nabanye abantu	Gcina umgama weenyawo ezi-3-6 kwiintsuku ezimbalwa zokuqala. Ngokuqinisekileyo hlala kude nabasetyhini abakhulelweyo nabantwana abancinci. Lala wedwa kwigumbi elahlukileyo. Kuphephe ukunxibelelana ngokusondeleyo njengokuqabulana kunye nesondo kangangeentsuku ezi-3-4.
Ukusetyenziswa kwendlu yangasese	Ukuba kunokwenzeka, sebenzisa indlu yangasese eyahlukileyo. Hlala phantsi xa uchama (ukuthintela ukuchitheka kwamanzi). Hlamba kabini rhoqo.
Ucoceko lomntu	Hlamba yonke imihla. Hlamba izandla zakho ngesepha rhoqo. Sela amanzi amaninzi. Oku kuya kunceda ukuba izinto ezisebenzisa i-radioactive ziphume ngokukhawuleza emchameni.
Iimpahla kunye neempahla	Hlamba iimpahla zakho, amashiti, kunye neetawuli ngokwahlukeneyo, ungasebenzisi ezabanye abantu. Hlamba izitya zakho, iikomityi, kunye nezixhobo zokusela ngokwahlukeneyo. Musa ukuvumela abanye abantu bazisebenzise.
Ukulungiselela ukutya kunye nokuhambahamba	Kuphephe ukubambana ngezandla nabanye abantu ixesha elide nokulungisa ukutya. Kuphephe ukusebenzisa izithuthi zikawonke-wonke kunye nokuhambahamba ixesha elide nabanye abantu iintsuku ezimbalwa.

Ixesha omele ulilandele le miyalelo liya kwahluka ngokuxhomekeke kwidosi yamayeza owafumeneyo. Ugqirha wakho uza kukuxelela ngokucacileyo oku.

Zithini iziphumo ebezingalindelekanga kunye neengozi?

Uninzi lwabantu alufumani ziphumo zimbi, kodwa abanye abantu banokufumana izinto ezifana nezi:

Iziphumo ebezingalindelekanga zexesha elifutshane:
Intlungu kunye nokudumba kwindawo yentamo.
Ukudumba kwamathe (kusenokubonakala ngathi zizidlele ezidumbileyo).
Umlomo owomileyo.
Utshintsho kwincasa.
Amehlo omileyo.
Isifo seGastritis.

Izinto ezinje ngokuhlafuna itshungama okanye ukukrazula iswiti yetofi zinokunceda kwezi mpawu.

Isiphumo sexesha elide (esilindelekileyo):
Ekubeni injongo yonyango ikukucima i-thyroid gland, kufuneka iipilisi ze-thyroid hormone zobomi bonke (i-Levothyroxine). Oku kuyimpembelelo engeyiyo kunokuba yinzuzo yonyango.

Kukwakho nemingcipheko engaqhelekanga. Nangona kukho ukukhankanywa kokwehla okwethutyana kwenani lesidoda kumadoda, imijikelo yokuya exesheni engacwangciswanga kubafazi, kunye nomngcipheko omncinci kakhulu weentlobo ezithile zomhlaza (`iLeukemia`, umhlaza wesisu), khumbula ukuba oku akunakwenzeka .

Ukuba ufumana ubunzima bokuphefumla, yiya kwiSebe lezeMpilo eziNgxamisekileyo (ETU) lesibhedlele esikufutshane ngoko nangoko.

Umyalezo Wokuya Ekhaya

Unyango lwe-radioactive iodine (RAI) lunyango olusebenzayo nolukhuselekileyo lwesifo se-thyroid.

Musa ukoyika igama elithi 'radioactive'. Oku kuyonakalisa kuphela iiseli ze-thyroid ezijoliswe kuzo.

Kubaluleke kakhulu ukulandela imiyalelo kagqirha ngononophelo ukuze ukhusele abanye kwiintsuku ezilandelayo emva konyango.

Amaxesha amaninzi, emva kolu nyango, kuya kufuneka usele iipilisi zehomoni ye-thyroid ubomi bakho bonke. Kulula ukuzilawula.

Ukuba unemibuzo, iinkxalabo, okanye uloyiko malunga noku, ungaze ungathandabuzi ukuthetha nogqirha wakho ngako.
