Annual Report to the Nation on Cancer Trends: Cancer Deaths Continue to Fall, But We Can Do Better
This report comes out every year. It is a summation of what we know about the trends in incidence rates for the most common cancers in the United States among both men and women as well as the trends in death rates from those cancers that lead to the highest mortality in the general population as well as specific ethnic groups. It is in a real sense a report card on our progress, which in large part is good but in a number of cancers, not so good. The good news is what we have come to expect: since the year 2000, the overall cancer death rates have continued to decline 1.8% per year in men, 1.4% in women and 0.6% per year ...

Scary Territory: The Twists and Turns of Breast Cancer
Entering my forties was spectacular and full of promise! I felt accomplished and excited about the changes in my life after meeting my husband while on vacation in Mexico. Months after my marriage and moving with my boys from Canada to Michigan, it all took a surprising twist. I was diagnosed with stage 3 breast cancer. I found the lump on self-examination. It was shocking that I had developed a 5-cm tumor with lymph nodes involved since my last mammogram only 18 months previously. At the early age of 44, life for me had forever changed. Treatment was successful in putting the cancer in remission. Genetic testing found me...

If Breast Cancer Doesn ' t Kill You, Heart Failure Might
File this in the category of the stuff we should have been told but weren ' t. Many women diagnosed with breast cancer, are given chemotherapy as part of their treatment. One of the drugs commonly used is calledDoxorubicin, also known Adriamycin or Rubex, or as us patients have been known to call it ' red devil ' , which carries a significant cardiac risk.When you are given it in chemo the nurses put on masks and special gowns to protect them. No thought of the patients. I was told it could cause some cardiac issues but now I am learning that the danger is very real and very concerning." “Both breast cancer and cardiovas...

Then there's that survivor thing
I started this post in March of 2009. I keep a bunch of posts in draft format that because I change my mind, something else catches my attention, or I just forget (most common). They can sit for months or years and then the links I was going to write about go away or I change my mind and decide I am still inspired.I know I have posted on this before. I do not consider myself a cancer survivor. I am someone living with two cancer diagnoses.  I am in a special little class of people (I like being called special. I like calling myself special. Its better than calling myself a survivor to me.) When asked, I do not say I a...

others ' eloquent voices
I was actually doing much better between when I blogged last time and when I went in for CyberKnife radiation last Thursday. I was walking and eating (and had even been out for dinner once and gone to book club). I was still needing to rest a lot but I could see the improvement in every day. And that was heartening. CyberKnife was a major setback. I remember that it was last time, too (so much so that I never really wrote about it - just wanted to move on). That ' s just how it goes for me, I guess. I had brain swelling, headache, nausea, loss of balance, fatigue (yet little sleep) and a very odd taste in my mouth.I s...

Long term risks of cancer treatment
A recent study revealed that most of the survivors of childhood cancers, end up with life long health problems. I find this a bit scary. It shows that cancer treatment can cause long term health issues. Yes what was standard treatment up to 48 years ago, the length of time from the longest survivor's treatment, certainly is not standard today. Cancer treatment has been likened to a slash and burn. Cut out what can be found and then burn it with radiation and then go after it systemically with chemotherapy. It must leave long term issues as it is such a harsh system of treatment. But how are we going to be in 40 years? Will...

Cancer Survivors Exhibit Greater Risk of New Cancers and Higher Mortality Due to those Cancers
The objective of this study is to quantify the overall and cancer type-specific risks of subsequent primary cancers (SPCs) among adult-onset cancer survivors by first primary cancer (FPC) types and sex. Among 1,537,101 survivors (mean age, 60.4 years; 48.8% women), 156,442 SPC cases and 88,818 SPC deaths occurred during 11,197,890 person-years of follow-up (mean, 7.3 years). Among men, the overall risk of developing any SPCs was statistically significantly higher for 18 of the 30 FPC types, and risk of dying from any SPCs was statistically significantly higher for 27 of 30 FPC types as compared with risks in the general po...

Thoughts on Changes to My Blog, Life With Breast Cancer
With all the changes to the blog platform here at Everydayhealth.com, I was thinking about some changes of my own. For one, as a breast cancer survivor, I spend a lot of time thinking about life beyond breast cancer and how I can stay healthy and cancer free. That had me thinking of changing the name of my “Life With Breast Cancer“ blog to Life Beyond Breast Cancer. Another change was to include comments and quotes from wellness providers that I have been meeting along my journey to wellness mission for this year. I have decided to hold off on the name change but love the idea of sharing some of the great info...

Cardiovascular risk in cancer survivors
Improvements in cancer care has its impact on better survival of those with early stage disease in several malignancies. In this scenario, cardiovascular disease has become a competing cause of death. It is not just due to chemotherapy induced myocardial disease, but also due to common risk factors for cardiovascular disease in this population. Hypertension, cigarette smoking and loss of cardiovascular fitness are some of them [1]. Weight gain may be also a problem in some. Those who have survived cancer for over 5 years have a 1.3 to 3.6 fold increased risk of cardiovascular mortality. Increased incidence of cardiovascu...
