Papillary thyroid cancer is more common in females than males and is most cured type of cancer which has 100% prognosis after the treatment. It can spread to lymph nodes of the neck and very rarely to lungs and bones. This cancer is diagnosed by biopsy and can be treated successfully by surgical removal of complete thyroid gland or some of its portion. Enlarged lymph nodes of neck are also removed surgically.
Radioactive Iodine RAI 31 has been being used for 40 years. It is reported that RAI can successfully treat the thyroid cancer.
So, your problems of pain in hip and bone might not be due to metastatic papillary thyroid cancer if you had completed treatment by surgery or RAI31. You should visit a doctor for further investigations.

The thyroid cancer has been resistant to radioactive Iodine 131, I have had as much as 300mlc at one time, and still have residuals in the lymph nodes.
I guess that is why I wonder what this may have to do with my bone and/or hip pain.
