Re: Thyroid cancer after BC anyone?

Glad you got the "negative" results for now Sassy.
Hopefully you will get the all clear later on.

I have a male friend who developed thyroid cancer about 3 years after being diagnosed with breast cancer. He had a rare lung cancer in his teenage years which was treated with radiation, and cured. But then he got BC in his 50s, then thyroid cancer. He's a three-time survivor.

all the best
