Can Breast Or Lymph Node Cancer Spread To Bladder Or Colon With History Of Polys In Anal Area And Bladder Control Problem?

I have a lump in my breast that I have had a biopsy done on. The results will be available tomorrow. The doctor also detected a small lump under my arm. I realize the potential diagnosis of this is not good but I m staying as optimistic as I can. Because my husband was very ill for several years (he has since passed away) I neglected my own health care. I have polyps in my anal area and have had problems with bladder control which I have had all my life. I didn t tell my doctor about this but I will tomorrow. My question is this: if I am diagnosed with breast and or lymph node cancer, does it spread to areas such as the bladder or colon? I have not had a colonoscopy (it was next on my list after the mammogram).

Hi
Thanks for your query.
Breast cancer is very unlikely to spread to colon or bladder. You may have an unrelated problem there, which needs colonoscopy and probably other tests also. Please discuss all you problems with your doc as hiding facts will not solve those.
Hope this helps.
Regards
