  • Health Question

    I am asking this to people who know about this. Please I dont need opinions or "I think that".

    Can a tumor come back after 5 years of it being removed? I have been told that after 5 years you are safe. Is it true? Can it come back at the exact same spot?

    Thanks.

    Ok then, since I am not getting any responses, nor can I have a call back from a Doctor, I will take opinions and "I have heard that..." type ofs...

    Thanks

      Yes, it can. Rarely.

          Technically, if they got the entire tumor, it wouldn't be considered to have "come back". It would be a new tumor. And, yes it happens, but not very often. Practically speaking, how can one be sure they really got it all. If they don't they usually grow back much sooner than 5 years, but ....
