Default other links possibly for testicular cancer?

I'd like to see something in here about testicular cancer as well as prostate cancer. I've been told that it's the #1 cancer in men under age 35.

Default Take a deep breath

Wasn't sure where to place this as it applies to everyone.

We often knock Consultants and doctors, feeling they are not committed to their work but I have just purchased a brilliant album of songs called "TAKE A DEEP BREATH"

It was written and is played by the Professor of Oncology Research at the Cancer Centre here in Belfast, Northern Ireland.

I am not here on a promotion drive but to say most physicians are doing their best to treat and to research new methods of treatment. This is a neat way to do it and to support patients and carers alike. This is the link.

Default Melanoma - Signs and Symptoms

Melanoma warning signs.

A B C D E List from Cancer.net
  • Asymmetry. The shape of one-half of the mole does not match the other.
  • Border. The edges are ragged, notched, uneven, or blurred.
  • Color. Shades of black, brown, and tan may be present. Areas of white, gray, red, or blue may also be seen.
  • Diameter. The diameter is usually larger than 6 millimeters (mm) or has grown in size. This is about 1/4 inch in diameter, about the size of a pencil eraser. Melanoma may be smaller when it is first detected.
  • Evolving. The mole has been changing in size, shape, color, or appearance, or it is growing in an area of previously normal skin. Also, when melanoma develops in an existing mole, the texture of the mole may change and become hard or lumpy. The skin lesion may feel different and may itch, ooze, or bleed, but a melanoma skin lesion usually does not cause pain.

There are revolutionary new treatments available for melanoma now.
Take care of your skin.

4 Cancer Models and Grape Seed Extract - Breast, Prostate, Colon, Skin Types

Anticancer and Cancer Chemopreventive Potential of Grape Seed Extract and Other Grape-Based Products

This may be printed here elsewhere but I'll place it here too. Grape Seed Extract has been in research on the above cancers and the MAIN reason I started taking it 26 yrs now is we were told "may prevent cancers"..... I got with it and have NEVER regretted my decision.
