Just wondering if there could be a link. Thanks. knowledgeispower Mon, 05 May 2008 00:00:00 GMT Hi How do you know you have kidney cancer?Is it possible that with advanced thyroid cancer that it has metastasis to your kidneys?All the bestJustin TT June 07,  Justin1967 Tue, 06 May 2008 00:00:00 GMT I had both cancers.  I had my thyroid removed and 10 weeks later I had a severe pain in my back and my husband rushed me to the hospital. I had a tumor on my kidney bigger than a fist.  Needless to say I had my kidney was  removed.  The doctors say they were unrelated.  That my kidney cancer was growing longer.  I only had papillary thyroid cancer not advanced.    I went to an oncologist and she said that they are unrelated but it makes you wonder.Sorry I couldn't be of more help. oldlogcabin2 Thu, 08 May 2008 00:00:00 GMT
