Monday, April 16, 2012
People magazine broke the news last week that veteran actor Ryan O?Neal was diagnosed with prostate cancer. O?Neal, 70, who battled leukemia in the 1990s, told the magazine that his prostate cancer was a stage 4 ? but that his doctor gave him a good prognosis.
Stage 4 cancer means the cancer has metastasized (or spread) elsewhere in the body. Stage 4 is the most difficult stage of cancer to treat, and the survival rate for Stage 4 cancer is usually very poor.
Anatomical position
The prostate makes up part of the male reproductive system. Anatomically, the prostate is a gland that sits directly below the bladder. The prostate secretes semen which neutralizes the acid in a woman?s vagina and prolongs the life of sperm (secreted from the testicles).
Female Prostate
Because all embryos (babies) start out as females ? women also have female prostate glands, formerly called Skene?s glands. The female prostate gland (which is now the uterus) sits in the same anatomical position as the male prostate. The opening of the female prostate (Skene?s gland) is near the urethra, which drains urine from the bladder. Like males, the female prostate gland also secretes an alkaline solution, which most women confuse for urine during orgasms.
Causes of prostate Cancer in males
The specific cause of prostate cancer in men is unknown. The average age at diagnosis is 70 (Ryan?s age). But males of any age (usually over 50) are diagnosed with prostate cancer. In the U.S. 30,000 men die of prostate cancer every year. Risk factors include black men, men over 60, diet (too much red meat, high fat diet and not enough fish and vegetables), alcohol, hereditary (a brother of father who was diagnosed), medications (steroid injections), and infections caused by STDs or a retrovirus can all increase the risk of prostate cancer.
Cancer begins when normal prostate cells transforms into cancer cells which rapidly multiply in the prostate. Eventually, the multiplying cancer cells enlarge the prostate gland and it begins to push against other organs, causing pain.
Signs (what you see) and Symptoms (what you feel):
Early prostate cancer usually has no signs or symptoms. Symptoms usually occur when the prostate has enlarged to the point that it invades other organs nearby. You might also experience difficulty obtaining an erection and difficulty ejaculating. If the tumor spreads to the bones or lymph glands, there will be pronounced pain at the sites where the cancer has spread.
Other signs and symptoms include:
If you experience any of these signs and symptoms, consult your physician or health care professional. If you do not have a doctor, go to the emergency room.
Diagnosis of Prostate Cancer in males
A positive diagnosis is confirmed by performing a biopsy of the tumor.
Once the prostate has enlarged, it can be detected easily by a doctor or healthcare professional during a digital rectal examination. During the exam, the doctor will wash his hands and put on gloves. With a lubricated and gloved finger, your doctor will feel around inside your rectum for approximately one minute.
If the doctor feels a tumor inside your rectum, or an uneven area, he will order tests such as a biopsy of the prostate tumor, and/ or urine tests and blood tests to look for the presence of antigens or proteins which indicates cancer. Your doctor might also order a CT Scan, Ultrasound or a MRI to visualize the tumor.
Treatment
Treatment includes surgery to remove part or all of the prostate, radiation therapy, chemotherapy or hormones. Depending on your age and he size of the tumor, the doctor might elect not to do anything except monitor your blood work to make sure the tumor does not spread.

The soul of the grief and loneliness ,unable to contain the sorrow and melancholy, I slowly like a central radio international love and joy FM JOY FM EASY FM Easy FM .still clearly remember the host of men and women ( but only remember Rick and zephyr ,* Lu Ji name ) in English with the way of interpretation ,the Chinese and foreign songs in music playback ,song at the same time ,also practice English speaking and listening, I insist 5 years ofgood habit ,but to the field because of broadcast signal problems have never received !It is a winter night ,lying in the ladder classroom learning for a long time ,a lot of people ,central heating is very hot ,very complex is very thick ,I decided to go head !Break, with the radio and walked out of the teaching building .
Earphone there came Rick and zephyr made fast easy English speech ,then zephyr with Chinese said a friend made a song in my life to all of his fellow students dormitory .This is the first time listening to Lao Lang with old hoarse singing voice ,also be lyrics true and deep move thoroughly ,then a few minutes always feel indistinct in the dream, do not know about teaching building turned a few laps.
Autumn in Beijing is very cold night ,but in the night sky unlimited thoughts spread. The very next day ,I was frantically searching for the singer and the song ,any relevant information .
Lao Lang The life story of getting to know many ,he was also just the business ,many people do not know him ,the song is not very popular. The singer lonely ,solitary image in my mind slowly busty real, campus balladry album is slowly I know ,familiar ,sing ,I put sleep in me lyrics made a poster affixed to the back of the classroom ,many classmates learn slowly ,like the singer and the song .
94 years later,Lao Lang and other campus singer was gradually students by whole society well known and recognized ,campus folk also took the most glorious moments the album ,even out of the three series ,and other miscellaneous causes and featured a class is innumerable .
In these songs there ,although Lao Lang few songs is the most people and I both like ,with you ,love the song ,in my life ,Blue Dream ,the music bug and so on, but most of my fellow students and they like ,catch up from behind ,is the song who is lonely because of missing .
Say to be ashamed ,now can campus folk 1album was the original singer of this song is who At present ,but listen to a number of versions of the singing voice ,and impression of care ,should be at Okayama ,rather than Eric Moo somewhat frivolous thin deduction .
But to tell the truth ,I really don want to see the name and my heart chant together. University .Some people leisure time ,the exuberant energy ,rich emotions and keen feelings ,sad lovelorn opportunity should say is in the life the filling time, it this song in boys and girls heart can greatly resonance .
Review University five years ,although except bear mentioning several field unrequited love ,also there is no real sense of love ,but those who failed memory not only at that time ,continue even now ,brought considerable pain was felt .
And we like the taste of poetry ,little Lin Daiyu always melancholy and moody ,the song was a think very profound understanding and feeling. Now it seems ,already in the past 15 years,I found myself at that time didn this song ,called " ;easier said than done ,called " ;" ;" pet phrase ;only 15years,met many people ,after many things ,the great-hearted ,mind The study on the annals of ignorant youth ,quickly into practice the sophistication ,snobbish vulgar people ,even they themselves do not believe the heart also has a dream ,there will be a passionate heart .
Twenty-first Century, 80,after all ,is a everyone has a dream ,a dream to catch the dare dare era ,but also a social problem of complex ,interpersonal confusion era. She denies everything ,suspect everything ,trying everything ,achievement of many previous unrealistic dreams ,exposed many problems difficult to solve ,in the sun ,in the eyes of the world to reveal human nature ugly instincts and desires of the original face .
She makes me confused ,make me confused so ,I lost my mind control ,let the feelings of the drive ,let me thriller fear change ,although she and bring the feelings of others and change is the same.
I don the original moral concept will not continue ?A new social order will not be as she was abroad that build smoothly ?Tumor of lung cancer gastric carcinoma oesophagus cardia cancer rectal cancer of colon cancer cervical cancer ovarian cancer breast cancer and uterine cancer pancreatic carcinoma of the thyroid carcinoma of the gallbladder bile tube carcinoma renal cell carcinoma of bladder cancer of uterine fibroids in gastric cancer and cancer of lung cancer breast feeding Adenocarcinoma gallbladder cancer and cervical carcinoma of the gallbladder carcinoma pancreatic carcinoma thyroid cancer tumor of tongue cancer of colon cancer rectal cancer of prostate cancer of bladder tumor testicular neoplasms nasopharyngeal carcinoma laryngeal lymphoma leukemia treatment of gastric cancer and cancer treatment on skin cancer treatment: lung cancer breast cancer treatment and cancer of the bile in the treatment of hepatocellular carcinoma in cervical carcinoma treated with the therapy of gallbladder cancer in the treatment of renal cell carcinoma in the treatment of pancreatic cancer therapy to treat thyroid cancer tumor therapy in rectal cancer treatment for prostate cancer treatment of tongue cancer treatment of colon cancer treatments of bladder tumors of the treatment of laryngeal lymphoma treated with testicular tumors in the treatment of nasopharyngeal carcinoma in the treatment of leukemia in the treatment of gastric symptoms food for cancer symptoms of skin cancer symptoms of lung cancer symptoms of breast symptoms of bile although cancer liver cancer symptoms of cervical cancer symptoms of gallbladder cancer symptoms of kidney cancer symptoms of pancreatic cancer symptoms of thyroid cancer symptoms of brain tumor symptoms of rectal symptoms of prostate cancer symptoms of tongue cancer symptoms of colon cancer symptoms of bladder tumor symptoms of laryngeal symptoms of lymphoma symptoms of testicular tumor nasopharyngeal symptoms symptoms of leukemia I know ,as a long time do not want to wake up the dream ,really The wake ,much is reluctant ,how I want to go back to my dream go ,away from the real world of cold system ,continue to taste kind of sentimental and fantasy .
However once it wakes up ,it knows absolutely can not go back, reason occupy the absolute advantage ,he is not allowed to love one and again ,again while the three breakthrough his yoke ,destroying his order.
Feelings feel very beautiful is very pleasant ,but blindly pursue the enjoyment, will destroy the real world smooth life ,hurt innocent people ;reason is very cruel ,callous, may severely hurt his heart, but it can bring the interpersonal harmony ,to achieve social stability.
As heroes Brokeback ,resolutely refused ,years later ,that had been used to the empty sleeve one-armed life ,but the midnight when the arm is still clear ,habitual action still as ever ,only the corner of the eye has quietly leave tears two ,sticky wet pillow foot skirt ,wake up not you see ,will slowly recall dream in dribs and drabs .
Feel ,look back in no way ,far-sighted way ,the acid was sweet and salty ,gloomy melancholy heart empty ,however ,was not really !I just know ,The taste of missing a person ,just like drinking a cup of cold water ,and then use a very long time ,a heart into tears.
I only know ,who is lonely because of missing ,pain was because want to forget who .I only know ,forget a person ,like to enjoy a cruel beauty ,and with a very small very small voice, tell yourself to be strong in the face of failure .
