What's that? I will be watched for the rest of my life. I am B-RAF positive. There is no such thing as cancer free for me. Just keeping it in control and watching for metastasis.

I think that goes for all of us. We may not be B-RAF mutated, I haven't been tested so maybe I am, but I think we all have a chance that some hidden metastasis may become a problem sometime in the future.

I was diagnosed three years ago with pap thyroid cancer and am stilling learning things about this cancer (and have been told that it is the best cancer to have and therefore family/friends just sort of ignore it -- what a joke). So, what is B-RAF. thanks0 -

It's an Onco mutation gene. It occurs in about 43% of Papillary cancer patients and makes the cancer more aggressive, harder to treat and faster growing.
