A member asked:
What happens if my friend has breast cancer and results of a biopsy of her thyroid shows cancer, what's her prognosis?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Probably separate: Hi. The breast cancer and thyroid cancer are probably unrelated. I've never seen breast cancer metastasize to thyroid. Thyroid cancer generally has a high cure rate. It's not fair she's had these cancers but life isn't fair. I bet the thyroid cancer with treatment will go well. I hope the breast cancer is in remission. She might outlive us all! :-)
