Only 10% people up to 90 years old can avoid cataract, how do they manage that? Can this disease be reversed? Will only people with the perfect vision avoid the disease?

My next door neighbour was rushed to hospital in an ambulance this afternoon. As concerned neighbours, we gave his wife (who doesn't drive) our number to ring if she needed a lift home from the hospital. My g/f and I joked that they would ring at 6:15, just as we were sitting down to our tea. Low and behold, what happens? So I've sent the g/f off to pick them up, so I can carry on drinking beer and sitting on here answering questions. Good samaritan or what? P.S the hospital is 25 miles away. Not really a question I know, but I just wanted to get that off my chest. No pun intended. Glad my neighbour has been given the all clear, but now I've got to wait for my tea!

I'm probably way too young for one (and I'm scared about having one), but I'm wondering when should I start getting checked? Most people say that you should start getting check after 50 years old, but my dad got his when he's 50 and he got diagnosed with stage IV colon cancer that metastasized to his liver. According to the doctor, he probably had the cancer for a while and it probably started developing during his 40s or earlier. There's pretty much no hope for him now since now it had spread to his lungs somehow, and I learned that he had family members who died from colon cancer. Since I have a family history of this, when is the appropriate time to get screened? I'm currently 18 years old.

i read chicken soup for teenage souls and the stories are based on real incidents. many of the teens have lost parents who had cancer. i feel chemo is not a solution for cancer because u only suffer thru the whole process, lose hair and keep throwing up. And it is terrible to see the patient suffer. and it is not that the cancer gets eradicted. my frnd's sister died of leukemia 2 years ago. She had a bone marrow transplant . The cancer went away but after 2 months it returned and she was in worse shape. She died a painful death. and it was heart breaking to see my frnd during those tough times. So i'd like to know if there are other ways to cure malignant tumours.

I have had an extremely hard knot on the back of my heel for years. It is solid and has never given me any trouble. I have never had pain from it. I can take my fingers and it has a solid shape to it. I know that there is such a thing as a heel spur. Could that be what it is? It has a definite shape to it. It is about the size of a ball like we used to play jacks with. I have to wear shoes with the back out or a little big but only because of the size of it. I would like some helpful responses. I have received some really nasty responses in the past when I ask questions and all I want is information. Thanks again.

Is there any study that shows how people with diabetes type I compare to other people in GDP per capita? I want to know if control of diabetes is so time consuming that is detrimental to peoples' success in life.
