I'm so sorry to hear about your cousin's experience. It remains to be seen

how/if there is a correlation between the two.

To encourage you, I'm a 37+ year thyca survivor. No breast cancer. I was

age 21 at initial diagnosis. I had 176 mCi RAI 20+ years ago. RAI is a

very effective treatment for thyca.

You are right when you say that we need to be vigilant about all aspects

our health.

Best to you,
