Anyone know of any musician's affected by cancer? Need help for a school project! They don't have to be affected by it themselves, could be a close relative that had cancer. If this is the case state so! Thank you!

My primary care found a suspsicous nodule on my thyroid. I am 36 years old. He referred me to a local endicrinoligist who is right out of school. She wants me to have a FNA Biopsy. However, the facility is a local facility. I want to go into Boston, to the major teaching hospital. I called and got an appointment but it is not for another month and a half. Is it okay to wait that long? The endocrinoligist said it was okay to wait since Thyroid Cancer is slow growing. Is she right? I am so scared....

I don't even know if my question makes sense. A relative of mine has been diagnosed with MS five years ago. However she had abused cocaine, alcohol and whatever else for 20 years prior. She hasn't used since her diagnosis. Sometimes I see her do things, walk better, open something she says she can't in front of people, etc. She talks about the "lesions on her brain". From my undesrstanding these are dead brain cells. So, that is why my question if it is reallly MS.

I go for a biopsy in one week.... My right breast has two knots and is very inflammed but no redness. It is painful and my lymph nodes under my right arm is also swollen. I was first thought to have a breast infection but after 40 days of antibotics and no improvement, two ultrasounds, two mamograms... I am now seeing a surgeon to have the biopsy. My question is... can it still be inflammatory breast cancer even if there is no redness or discoloration? thanks for your help

I have red hair and pale skin. I have a few freckles, but not as many as most red heads. When I was very young, it was fall and cold. My parents let me sit in the swings, and I fell asleep. It was a cloudy and cold day, but somehow my face got EXTREMELY sunburnt and it swelled. The doctor yelled at my mom a lot, and he said I would be permenently scarred, but it turns out, a small indent in my skin is only visibile when I give a big smile.

I get sunburnt extremely easily if I don't wear sunscreen used on babies. I never ever get tan, just sunburnt, and I am the only redhead in my family.

With this information, can you tell me how likey I am to develop skin cancer? I go to mexico/jamacia once every summer.

A right to privacy or a missed opportunity to make others aware of risk of skin cancer?

At the time of initial diagnosis had a 1 & 2yr. old, chose to only have one breast removed rather than full masectomy. She underwent intensive chemo & radiation. When it came back, it was in practically every organ. Realizing this was 10 yrs. ago & a lot has changed, I can't imagine why they would have given a choice of complete masectomy? The only thing I can think of that may have influenced her decision was that she had a jerk of a husband who made her cancer all about him & that he only had 1 real breast left for his pleasure. I know, sick, but heard him actually give her a hard time about this in front of others even! Real loser. Anyway, I am recently diagnosed so it has brought all of this to the forefront again. Any thoughts on how they proceeded 10 yrs. ago?

So i've just been told by an advert on UK television,

SO STOP PUTTING THEM IN THE CIGARETTES THEN!!!

the british government makes me sick, banging on about how bad they are for you, but allowing them to be made harmful,

pure tobaco doesn't cause cancer.

But Corporate / Government approved chemical laced cigs do.

I feel cigerettes are just as harmful to ones health as many other drugs, it is a controlled substance, and it causes cancer to others, if one smokes crack and stops there is no after effects, if you smoke and quit you can get very sick and die.

My brother-in-law was diagnosed with liver cancer 4 years ago. They cut out what they could, but I believe it had already spread into the colon and intestines. They cut out a lot of intestine also. He is suddenly extremely worse. Eating very little,( he worked up to a few weeks ago), and isn't getting out of bed. She says he has no flesh or muscle left on his body. He's just a skeleton. She has three teen sons at home, and nobody has prepared them. She is afraid he won't make it until Christmas, I'm 3,000 miles away and don't know what I can do to help. I have told her to call Hospice, for that may give her some relief, but my question is since he's still walking, is there a chance he could go suddenly?
