One more thing about being diagnosed with cancer: Better and better equipment is finding cancer earlier and earlier, for those who go for regular check-ups. The problem with finding cancer in a very early stage is that sometimes, if left alone, it will either go away by itself or not progress. But, often, doctors will recommend some kind of treatment.

Here are a few examples: Almost all elderly people have a few cancer cells in their thyroid but dying of thyroid cancer is rare.

Almost all eldery men have a few cancer cells in their prostate but treatment is not always advisable.

Breast cancer, if discovered at a very early stage, may either go away by itself or not progress.

If you doubt this, read, "Should I Be Tested For Cancer?" Maybe Not And Here's Why.
