If its an advanced stage of melanoma, then there is a possible occurence of metastasis where some of the cancer cells can break away from the primary tumor and cause other secondary tumors in the body, e.g. in the lung or liver.
The effects of Breast cancer may include both physical and psychological factors. Since most people ask about breast cancer in women rather than in men, I'll stay with that viewpoint.Among the variables that bear on the effects of breast cancer are how old the patient is when the cancer is diagnosed and treated; how early it is treated -- the stage; the kind of treatment; whether or not there is a recurrence; whether the breast cancer shows up in other parts of the body (yes, you can have "breast" cancer in organs and locations other than the breast); the family status of the patient (married? with children? with extended family support?); the patient's general outlook and ability to cope with serious illness. And sheer luck!There are other variables, but you can see how complex is the question that you asked. If we have, for example, a post-menopausal woman who has discovered a lump early and who needs only a lumpectomy, with no chemo and no radiation, the effects might be minimal: proven-effective medication that has no unpleasant side effects (there are new medications on the shelves and in clinical trials); regular mammograms; regular medical consultation; breast self-examinations -- and that may be the end of the problem.On the other hand, if we have a young woman is pregnant with her third child, whose first children are pre-schoolers, and whose cancer indicates mastectomy, chemo, and radiation, we are looking at a different constellation of variables to deal with.Similarly, if the woman is young and has no children but needs treatment that may either compromise or prevent her future pregnancies, who feels that she can live with that loss, but whose husband is devastated by the thought that he may never be a father, that's a different picture of "long-term effects."Scenario after scenario, the long-term effects will differ.In general, to minimize unpleasant long-term effects, follow the procedures that every woman knows to detect the cancer early. If cancer is diagnosed, keep an optimistic outlook, and make informed decisions about treatment. The outlook for long-term remission of breast cancer is increasingly positive, with correspondingly increasing hope that the long-term effects will be minimal and "acceptable" to everyone in the picture.
Yes there is a long term reaction of radiation treatment of cancer, the most common reaction faced by cancer patients is the loss of hair and also loss of appetite. Intense radiation in the area of the stomach or esophagus in particular can cause digestive problems such as "irritable bowel syndrome", constipation and/or diarrhea, esophagitus among other adverse conditions up to fifteen years and longer after the treatments. Not all patients suffer side effects. Each case must be seen as having a individual outcome.
There are many long term effects from lung cancer. When a person gets lung cancer the lung tissue is permanently scarred and the risk of reoccurrence is extremely high.

Do a search for the effects of Lung Cancer. The original source (Thyroid) is immaterial.
It leads to clogging your blood vessels, high blood pressure, higher heart rates, lung cancer, oral cavity cancer ( most commonly tongue cancer ), impotence etc. These some of the biggest effects.

long term effects include infertility and cancer in some herbicides and inhaling the fumes for extended periods may cause a lung infection
The long-term side effects of chemotherapy are determined by factors such as the body part or parts affected by cancer, the type of chemotherapy given, and the overall health of the patient before chemotherapy. Some long-term effects may include heart problems, decreased lung capacity, fatigue, hormone problems, and joint problems. Cancer can be beaten and the benefit of chemotherapy is far greater than the risks.
