Real Answers Prostate Cancer by Jerry L. Mayers Pdf

As you know there are many ways to treat prostate cancer; surgery, radiation therapy, brachytherapy (seeds), as well as Cryotherapy (freezing the prostate). Each for of treatment is designed to attempt to cure prostate cancer that is still 'confined to the prostate' and has not spread elsewhere. The decision as to which treatment type is best for you depends on many factors such as your personal overall health and overall life expectancy as well as the level of PSA, the digital exam findings, the gleasons score (which in my case was a favorable factor), the number of positive cores from you biopsy, and lastly your overall willingness to accept certain side effects from each of the different treatments.

Invasion of the Prostate Snatchers by Mark Scholz,Ralph Blum Pdf

Every year almost a quarter of a million confused and frightened American men are tossed into a prostate cancer cauldron stirred by salespeople representing a multibillion-dollar industry. In this flourishing business, the radical prostatectomy is still the most widely recommended treatment option. Yet a recent and definitive study in the New England Journal of Medicine concluded that out of the fifty thousand prostate operations performed annually, more than forty thousand are unjustified. But this is no surprise given that 99 percent of all doctors treating this disease are surgeons or radiation therapists. The appalling fact is that men are still being rushed into a major operation that rarely prolongs life and more than half the time leaves them impotent. Invasion of the Prostate Snatchers is a report on the latest thinking in prostate cancer therapy: close monitoring–active surveillance rather than surgery or radiation–should be the initial treatment approach for many men. There are three stages of prostate cancer and this book will provide accurate information about how to distinguish between them: Low-Risk, which requires no immediate treatment; Intermediate-Risk, which will benefit from surgery, radiation, and/or hormonal therapy; and High-Risk, a type that does require immediate treatment with a combination of therapies. In a unique collaboration, doctor and patient provide a wholly new perspective on managing this disease. Ralph Blum’s account of his personal struggle, together with Dr.Mark Scholz’s presentation of newscientific advances, provides convincing evidence that this noninvasive approach can be crucial in preventing tens of thousands of men from being overtreated every year. Invasion of the Prostate Snatchers serves as an indispensable map through the medical minefield of prostate cancer.

Men don’t talk about ... Cancer of the Prostate and Depression by Ian Newbegin Pdf

Men are wimps when it comes to their health. Many avoid seeing a doctor and do not like to talk about prostate issues or depression. Author Ian Newbegin's life changed when he was diagnosed with prostate cancer, but with optimism, he created a way of life that allowed him to not just survive but thrive. Men Don't Talk About... chronicles his journey from fear to acceptance and ultimately survival. His story is one designed to encourage men to visit their doctors more frequently, particularly when they suffer from any urinary complications- one of the early signs of a potential problem. He explores his experiences with both prostate cancer and the resulting depression through candid insight. From a patients view point, he provides simple explanations about each disease. Knowledge is power for anyone facing cancer and he shares his research and experiences to help others. His story is one intended to demystify the diseases. He reminds the reader that there is no stigma involved with either disease and encourages them to take control of their own care. His message is simple: If he can survive the ordeal of having cancer and depression, so can you. You can increase your chances by having regular medical checkups. Remember, you're worth it.

Screening by Angela E. Raffle,Anne Mackie,J. A. Muir Gray Pdf

Screening programmes involve the systematic offer of testing for populations or groups of apparently healthy people to identify individuals who may be at future risk of a particular medical condition or disease, with the aim of offering intervention to reduce their risk. For many years, screening was practised without debate, and without evidence, but in the 1960s serious challenges were raised about many of the screening procedures then being practised. Benefits and harms of screening must be measured in high quality trials, and the benefits of screening must be weighed alongside the negative side-effects. Concerns were raised about potential and actual harm arising when people without a health problem received dangerous and unnecessary investigations and treatments as a result of routine screening tests. Controversy raged, and it took some 50 years to achieve widespread recognition that evidence-based and quality assured programme delivery was essential, coupled with provision of balanced informed to enable informed choice for potential participants. Commercially motivated provision of poor quality and non-evidence based screening tests is increasing and screening remains a highly contested topic that has relevance in all health systems including for the general public and media. This book serves as a practical and comprehensive guide to all aspects of screening. Following the international success of the first edition, this second edition brings extensive updates and new case study material. The first section deals with concepts, methods, and evidence, charts the story of screening back to 1861, and covers all aspects of a screening programme and how to research the full consequences. The second section is a practical guide to sound policy-making and to high quality delivery of best value screening. The controversies, paradoxes, uncertainties, and ethical dilemmas of screening are explained, and each chapter is packed with examples, real-life case histories, helpful summary points, and self-test questions. Reference is made to the NHS, a leader in screening, but the primary focus is on universal principles, making the book highly relevant across the globe.
