Is there any connection between using micro-currents on the thyroid area and an increase in thyroid cancer?

I had ultrasound therapy a few months ago and then developed papillary and medullary thyroid cancer recently. Might be a coincidence but it's strange to develop 2 kinds of thyroid cancer, one being extremely rare! Any studies?
