Recovered cancer patients are twice as likely to develop the exact same cancer again as people with no cancer record are to develop any specific cancer. On the other hand, the risk of developing other types of cancer than the one previously diagnosed is only slightly higher.
The reason why we're often deemed 'lucky' to have thyroid cancer is because of the high survival rate. If caught early, the most common types have a five-year survival rate of nearly 100 percent. There are much rarer types and later stages that drop that survival rate down to as low as 7 percent. But no matter which type you have, or when it's caught, no one is lucky to have any kind of cancer.
