Bladder Cancer
In November 1998, I noticed blood in my urine and went to a urologist for a diagnosis. Under general anesthesia, I underwent an examination of the urethra, during which a tumor was discovered and excised for analysis. This proved to be the source of blood in the urine, and I was diagnosed with transitional cell carcinoma, a cancer for which, if it reappeared, the outlook was not good. The literature suggests that this type of cancer has a 75 percent chance of recurring. [read more]

He referred me to a urologist, and as a result of a biopsy, I was diagnosed with prostate cancer. [read more]

Breast Cancer

Psoriasis
I went to Paracelsus because I had suffered from horrible psoriasis since the age of 11. I used to have four-inch raised scaly patches covering both elbows, extending down my forearms. Now and then, I’d also get itchy patches of psoriasis on my scalp, jaws, hip, fingers, and even my eyelids. [read more]
