Hi Everyone,

I was just wondering and trying to do some research on the number of people that get Thyroid cancer after having chemo for breast cancer.

My Breast surgeon said she is amazed at the number of breast cancer clients that now have thyroid cancer. I havent had radiation only chemo x 6 sessions (FEC + Docsetaxel) I have had 1 year of Herceptin. and have have one year of  Tamoxifen with 4 years still to go.

So If anyone has any knowledge of this occurance, I would be ever so grateful.

Hi

Everyone of you lovely ladies/men,

I havent posted a blog since Oct last year. Alot has been happening. First breast Cancer then Thyroid Cancer now Colon and bowel cancer suspected. Just waiting on the results.

How are you all going in your journey. I'm so over all this treatment. I have finished chemo, herceptin. I still have radioactive iodine treatment in brisbane on 27-30th April.  And what ever treatment comes of the tests I had today.

So that is where I am at the moment.
