Hi,
I havn't had thyroid cancer. Have you had any other tests other than the ultrasound for the breast? If not it would be a good idea. See if your Dr. will ok a mamo and MRI. I just read an article in Ladies Home Journal that described some of the testing that can be done and it gave the pros and cons of each. You might want to check it out. Some tests arent good for picking up some things while others are.I was diagnosed in 4/05 with breast cancer.I hope after going thru thyroid cancer you dont have to join in on this one too!
Good luck,
Alice
