Are Thyroid Cancer And Aneurysm Related?
A dear friend just died of an aneurism . She was dry heaving a lot and feeling terrible so went to the hospital and died a few hours after arriving. A year ago she had thyroid cancer surgery. Was on medication for that. Could the thyroid cancer and the aneryism been related?

Dear,
sad to learn about the demise of close friend.
Unlikely, that thyroid cancer is related to aneurism. aneurism is a vascular malformation which abruptly ruptures by raised pressure caused by sudden sneezing or coughing or any type of straining increaing the pressure in the vessel leading to rupture and fatal end.
