Ovarian cancer often progresses quietly and advances to incurable stages. But there are a few questions you can ask yourself to assess warning signs and discover if you may be at risk.

This week, researchers at Fred Hutchinson Cancer Research Center showed six key symptoms and a blood test, help improve the early detection of ovarian cancer by 20 percent, according to findings published online in the journal Cancer. (Source: New York Times

I was diagnosed with breast cancer in both breasts and lymph nodes under both arms in August 2006. After completing treatment, my ultrasounds for 2005 are missing. Attempting to locate them, I have heard stories from many women whose mammograms and other radiology records have gone missing after a diagnosis of cancer. These missing records prevent any hope of collecting damages - which is perhaps why they have gone missing!

Did you see this story on CNN about dogs that can sniff out cancer? If not, take a look.

15th June 2008

Hello everyone,

Unfortunately, I have been unwell to update my blog more regularly as chemotherapy has been harsh and unrelenting on my body.

Over the past few weeks I have been hospitalised with severe gastritis due to the steroids I take to curb side effects from the chemo and discovered I have a deep vein thrombosis which requires twice daily injections of Clexane in the stomach, I had another stay in hospital to have my "porta-cath" inserted and my worse nightmare has hit as I have discovered an identical mass in my right breast!!!

My husband brought to my attention the article in the AZ Republic today. Thinking I would find answers to some of my medical problems, I quickly read the article only to find out about your web site. I have never written anything to a web site and doubt you have the space needed, but here goes. I am fifty-nine years old, married for forty one years to the same man, (top that one)and have medical problems that continue to amaze me. Like you Michelle, I had a complete hysterectomy, I was fifty at the time and had a benign tumor.

Thank you for your questions and comments. Let's look more closely at the impending June 10th issue. We can talk about the pros and cons about vaccines all day long and it won't matter because if we don't click on the link and send our letters now, we stand to lose our freedom to have any choice whatsoever.

Part of my job is to provide education (facts) regarding health issues. I don't usually impose my personal belief system on anyone. But since you asked, Tina, the answers to your questions are 'yes' and 'yes'. It's about health issues AND health freedoms. I will detail:

Friends and Colleagues,

We are facing serious health freedom consequences in the US that have not been mentioned during the nightly news.  Please take a moment to look at the attached Health Freedom Alert regarding vaccinations which will, for the first time in US history, make infant and toddler vaccinations MANDATORY.   I have researched the rise in number of infant thru 12 year old vaccinations over recent years.  The numbers are staggering.  

my husband had prostate cancer that went into bone cancer. It's in his ribs, shoulders, spine and now moved to his head. He's not in too much pain and has had no headaches,just rib and shoulder pain. My question is and I know everyone is different, I just want to know what to expect. He's had cancer since April 2002, got PSA down to .01 and then cancer came back in 2006 and developed into bone cancer in october 2007. I just want to be prepared and to know about what to expect.

I always ask friend etc. what doctor they go to....I look for a pleasant,honest physician that will speak to you with concern and not be scribbling things on your chart,asking a few questions, write your perscription and starts for the door while you give him your answers.
I am a retired Medical assistant. I worked in the field for 25 years. The
