Ovarian Cancer Symptoms Biography

Source(google.com.pk)

Although the majority of the 6,500 women diagnosed with ovarian cancer in the UK each year are menopausal, it is not solely confined to that group as younger women are also at risk.

The good news is that with early detection the survival rate is good with seven out of ten women treated will survive for five or more years.    The bad news is that some of the symptoms are similar to those seen in more common conditions, like irritable bowel syndrome (IBS) so your doctor may find it hard to diagnose.
Awareness is key, because to help your doctor diagnose ovarian cancer you need to monitor your body and report any symptoms as soon as you spot them. Also, cervical screening tests (smear tests) will not help to detect ovarian cancer so don’t rely on getting a clear result from that indicating you are clear of ovarian cancer.
Women need to learn to recognise the symptoms and go to see their doctor as soon as possible if they have any of the following consistently over a month and they don’t go away:

Persistent pelvic or abdominal pain

Increased abdominal size/persistent bloating (not the normal blow up around a period that comes and goes)

Difficulty eating or feeling full quickly

Urinary symptoms such as more frequent or urgent need to pee

Those are the most common symptoms, but sometimes there can be other such as:

Changes in bowel habit
Extreme fatigue (feeling very tired)

Unexplained weight loss
If you regularly experience any of these symptoms and they are not normal for you then please don’t hesitate but go and see your doctor.  They may be nothing, but it is important to be checked out.   It will help your doctor if you also keep a note of your symptoms such as when they occur and if related to specific events.  They will also want to know if there is any history of ovarian or breast cancer in your immediate family.

What Treatment Is Available?

First your doctor may suggest a CA125 blood test and, depending upon the results, they may order an internal scan. Alternatively, they may refer you to a specialist gynaecology unit for investigation, or if they do not think ovarian cancer is a likely cause they may ask you to return if your symptoms do not clear over a period of time.
Treatment normally involves chemotherapy and/or surgery – usually a total hysterectomy.  If this is the case then supplemental bio-identical progesterone will help to counter the effects of this sudden surgical menopause.

Bladder Cancer Symptoms Biography

Source(google.com.pk)

Bladder cancer has long been considered a disease of older men. Though it is more prevalent in men, studies have shown that women are more likely to present more advanced tumors and have a worse prognosis than men at almost every stage of the disease. According to a report published by the National Cancer Institute, the survival rate for women with bladder cancer lags behind that of men at all stages of the disease. African-American women, particularly have poor outcomes when diagnosed with bladder cancer. They present with the highest proportion of advanced and aggressive tumors when compared to African-American men and Caucasian men and women. In addition, the number of women diagnosed with bladder cancer has been increasing
BCAN applauds Keith Richards’ wife, Patti Hansen, for sharing her story of facing bladder cancer in the August 2010 issue of Vogue Magazine.  Bladder cancer is the fifth most commonly diagnosed cancer in the United States, and probably the least talked about.  On behalf of the over 600,000 Americans living with this disease, BCAN commends Ms. Hansen for her bravery in openly telling her story of living with bladder cancer.  It is wonderful that she is able to show that a bladder cancer survivor can maintain her active life and her radiant beauty.

It is important for women to understand their risks for bladder cancer and know what to ask their doctors.

Awareness is the key: in most cases, bladder cancer is treatable, but prompt diagnosis is critical.

Steve Jobs regretted his decision to delay having potentially life-saving surgery for his pancreatic cancer, his biographer has revealed.
After being diagnosed with the cancer in 2004, Jobs embarked on a series of alternative therapies including spiritual healing, said Walter Isaacson, author of the upcoming biography Steve Jobs.

Despite pleas from his family to have surgery, Jobs initially refused, Isaacson said, in an interview for CBS News 60 Minutes to be broadcast on Sunday.

The co-founder of Apple, who died this month after a long battle with the disease, had been told he had a very slow growing type of pancreatic cancer, and that his was one of the 5% "that can actually be cured".

Isaacson said that Jobs, after his diagnosis, "tries to treat it with diet, he goes to spiritualists, he goes through various ways of doing it macrobiotically – and he doesn't get an operation."

Asked why not, Isaacson told CBS: "I've asked him that and he said: 'I didn't want my body to be opened, I didn't want to be violated in that way.' He's regretful about it."

Interviewer Steve Kroft asked why "such a smart man could do such as stupid thing". Isaacson said: "I think he kind of felt: if you ignore something you don't want to exist, you can have magical thinking. It had worked for him in the past. He'd regret it."

His wife, Laurene, and others around Jobs convinced him to "quit trying to treat it with all these roots and vegetables and things" and have the surgery nine months later.

But when he finally had the operation it may have been too late, said Isaacson, as the cancer had already spread to the tissues surrounding the pancreas.

After the surgery, Jobs told his employers but played down the seriousness of his condition.

A piece on CBS News website said the interview covers "several of the best stories from the biography, including the fact that Jobs had actually met the man who turned out to be his biological father before he knew who he was."
They also talk about Jobs' disdain for excess consumerism. In a taped conversation, he tells Isaacson how he saw Apple staffers turn into "bizarro people" by the riches the Apple stock offering created, it said.

Throat Cancer Biography

Source(google.com.pk)

Fourteen-year-old Shawn was only trying to make friends and fit in at a new school when he started sneaking cigarettes from his father. But more than 30 years later he was still smoking, and the damage to his body was taking its toll.

Shawn was in his mid-forties when a chronic cough and laryngitis turned out to be throat cancer. He endured 38 radiation treatments and hours at the doctor’s office and finally quit smoking—but doctors were unable to save his larynx. He now has a stoma (opening) that allows him to breathe and a laryngeal implant that allows him to speak. As someone who enjoyed singing and playing the guitar, Shawn says the loss of his natural voice was "heartbreaking."

"I went through 3 years of treatment and recovery," says Shawn, who is now 51. "I have to get my implant changed every 90 days, and it’s not fun."

Shawn wants others to learn from his experiences through the Tips From Former Smokers campaign. He hopes his story will help others quit smoking.

"It’s a rough road," he says. "I wouldn’t like to see anyone else go through what I’ve gone through, because it affects you the rest of your life. You have a choice. Look at me and you see where choosing to smoke leads. Is this the choice you want to make?.

Cervical Cancer Biography

Source(google.com.pk)

 Genital human papillomavirus (HPV) — a sexually transmitted infection — is the most common cause of cervical cancer. When a woman is exposed to HPV, her immune system usually prevents the virus from doing any serious harm. But in a small number of women, the virus survives for years. Eventually, the virus can lead to the conversion of normal cells on the surface of the cervix into cancerous cells.

At first, the cells may only show signs of a viral infection. Eventually, however, the cells may develop precancerous changes. This is known as cervical intraepithelial neoplasia. Typically, the precancerous changes go away spontaneously. In some cases, however — particularly for women who have altered immune systems — cervical intraepithelial neoplasia may eventually progress to invasive cervical cancer.

It's not clear why some women are more likely to develop cervical cancer. Some types of HPV are simply more aggressive than are others. Cigarette smoking also increases the risk of cervical cancer. In fact, according to the American Cancer Society, women who smoke are about twice as likely as nonsmokers to develop cervical cancer.

There are two HPV vaccines available — Gardasil and Cervarix. They offer protection from several of the most dangerous types of HPV. Gardasil is approved for boys and men, girls and women ages 9 to 26. Cervarix is approved for girls and women ages 9 to 25.

Remember, if you're sexually active, the best way to prevent HPV and other sexually transmitted infections is to remain in a mutually monogamous relationship with an uninfected partner. When you have sexual intercourse outside of a long-term monogamous relationship, always have your partner use a condom. Regular screening for cervical cancer and precancerous changes of the cervix is important, too
