9781861440921: Prostate Cancer - The Essential Guide

Sinopsis

Voted 5 star by Macmillan cancer patients and survivors who reviewed it. Prostate cancer generally effects men over the age of 50 and there are 32,000 cases of prostate cancer diagnosed every year in the UK. There is currently no screening programme for the disease and the symptoms could be quite easily ignored, as they don't tend to cause too many problems in the early stages. Prostate cancer is the most common male cancer in the UK. Written by health correspondent David Loshak, this book provides straightforward information on the disease: from what the prostate is and how to recognise the symptoms of the condition, to what happens during screening and diagnosis, and the treatments available. Presented in an informative but conversational way, the book is aimed primarily at men who have just been diagnosed with prostate cancer, but anyone wanting further information on the condition can use it. All the medical issues are covered in an easy-to-follow way, together with sections that deal specifically with the emotional effects of the disease and strategies you can use to help your body fight the cancer.
