Dr. Patrick Maguire, The Cancer MD, Makes Prostate Cancer And Breast Cancer Guides Available For $.99 In Honor Of National Prostate Cancer Month And National Breast Cancer Month
In the minds of many people, a diagnosis of prostate cancer or breast cancer equals a death sentence. But these widely held beliefs are fallacies, as Dr. Patrick Maguire demonstrates in his recently published guides, 'Empowered Against Prostate Cancer' and 'Empowered Against Breast Cancer'.
"People are hearing conflicting information about testing and various treatment options for prostate and breast cancer," stated Dr. Patrick Maguire. "There are lots of weapons against these types of cancers, but an informed patient is the greatest of them all."
Dr. Maguire has been caring for people with cancer for over 15 years in North Carolina. In 'Empowered Against Prostate Cancer: Treatment Guide With Patient Stories', Dr. Maguire uses patient stories to describe the full spectrum of prostate cancer. Readers will learn:
* How to avoid the TOP 5 MISTAKES men make after a prostate cancer diagnosis
* Why you must know your “risk group”
* Which men should consider no treatment at all
* The real deal about prostate seeds and robotic prostatectomy
* Which new technologies and medicines are improving men’s lives
* The different side effects of these treatments based on real data
* The 10 CRITICAL QUESTIONS to ask your cancer doctor(s)
'Empowered Against Prostate Cancer' was reviewed by national prostate cancer experts from Johns Hopkins and Emory University Hospitals.
In 'Empowered Against Breast Cancer: Treatment Guide With Patient Stories', Dr. Maguire uses seven unique patient stories to describe the spectrum of breast cancer. These include patients with DCIS, early stage invasive, advanced and metastatic (incurable) breast cancers, as well as a man and a very young woman with aggressive disease. In this book, readers will learn:
* How to avoid the TOP 5 MISTAKES patients make after a breast cancer diagnosis
* Which patients are usually able to keep their breast and who needs a mastectomy
* The differences between chemotherapy and the many other systemic treatments
* Who needs radiation therapy and why
* Which new technologies and medicines are dramatically improving patient’s lives
* What breast cancer survivors need to know
* The 10 CRITICAL QUESTIONS to ask your cancer doctor(s)
'Empowered Against Breast Cancer: Treatment Guide with Patient Stories' was reviewed by national breast cancer experts from USC, UCSF, and the Memorial Sloan Kettering Hospitals.

Prostate Cancer – The Time For A Prostate Cancer Cure Is Here
In spite of endless claims of prostate cancer cures, where is the proof? Tom McLaughlin has set out on a quest to find that proof and is asking other prostate cancer victims to join him in his quest by providing vital information through a prostate cancer survey
om McLaughlin has prostate cancer. He has been on ‘Watchful Waiting’ for 13 years, all the while watching his PSA go steadily up. He believes there are cures, he is determined to find them and he is asking others to join him.
“As with all the men attempting to find a way out of the death sentence imposed by a prostate cancer ruling,” McLaughlin stated, “I plan to be part of the quest for a solution…to find needles in any number of haystacks…real cures! But this work needs the combined efforts of a multitude of prostate cancer victims, all working together to pass on to us the real gold, the cures that they have used themselves and found to work in shutting down their rising PSA test scores. Working together, we can do this.”
The plan is simple. Prostate cancer victims are asked to fill out a simple ‘Cure Success Survey’. Any prostate cancer sufferer can participate in the survey whether that victim has been successful or has perhaps struggled through any number of attempts to find a cure to control PSA test score results. The survey collects only the key information that clearly identifies what works and what does not. This information will greatly help other prostate cancer victims.
The stakes are high. Every year about 35,000 men will die of prostate cancer. One in six men will be diagnosed with prostate cancer during his lifetime. Prostate cancer is the second leading cause of cancer death in American men, behind lung cancer and about 1 man in 36 will die of prostate cancer.
McLaughlin's quest is to assemble empirical data about prostate cure claims - that are not yet proven - but may be. Those who fill out the survey and become members will receive information as to the veracity of prostate cancer cures…information that at first is simply unproven claims. As time goes by the collection of information will hone in on prostate cancer cures that have been PROVEN and repeatedly verified by the very prostate cancer victims who have pioneered their use.
“We are asking,” continued McLaughlin, “the lucky few who have discovered a prostate cancer cure that really worked for them to fill out a ‘Cure Success Survey’ as soon as possible. It only takes a few minutes and there is no cost or risk involved. The multitudes of prostate cancer victims need to hear about these success stories. And we need to hear about failures too, so that hopeful prostate cancer victims do not waste precious time pointlessly chasing their dream of a cure.”
Tom McLaughlin is available for media interview and can be reached using the information below. More information is available at the group’s website. Prostate cancer victims can take the ‘Cure Success Survey’ by visiting http://www.surveygizmo.com/s3/706793/Cure-Success-Survey
Profile:
Tom McLaughlin holds an MBA in Executive Management and has extensive experience in directing a wide range of software and product development projects for Fortune 500 companies. He is particularly well suited to head up an operation to collect and organize Cure Success Survey responses to ensure that the compiled information presented to members is easily understood and suitable for intuitive usage.
Mr. McLaughlin was diagnosed with a Gleason 8 prostate cancer in year 1998 and soon thereafter underwent a radical prostatectomy. Since the surgery his PSA has gradually risen to 5.2. He has been on a program of “Watchful Waiting” for the entire time. He devotes much of his time to researching cures for prostate cancer.

Empowered Against Prostate Cancer: Patrick Maguire MD Gives Patients The Information They Need In New Guide
In the minds of many people, a diagnosis of prostate cancer equals a death sentence. But this widely held belief is a fallacy, as Dr. Patrick Maguire demonstrates in his recently published guide, 'Empowered Against Prostate Cancer: Treatment Guide With Patient Stories'.
“People are hearing conflicting information about testing and various treatment options for prostate cancer,” stated Dr. Patrick Maguire. “There are lots of weapons against this type of cancer, but an informed patient is the greatest of them all.”
Finding information about prostate cancer online is a monumental task. Who should have PSA testing and how often? Which men with prostate cancer are best served by watchful waiting? What are the relative risks and benefits of treatment with radiation seeds versus surgery with robotic prostatectomy? What is intensity modulated radiation therapy (IMRT)? Much of the information on various websites is scattered, disorganized, confusing, and written in difficult to understand terminology. Some of the information available online is simply untrue. Dr. Maguire hopes to clear up the confusion and offer instead clear, easy to understand, factual information written in layman's terms.
'Empowered Against Prostate Cancer: Treatment Guide with Patient Stories' discusses treatment options in the context of the unique tales of numerous patients. The combination of touching personal accounts with expert recommendations separates this invaluable guide from other books about prostate cancer available in the marketplace.
The guide is available for sale online as a Kindle eBook at Amazon.com and in PDF (for those without eReaders) at Dr. Maguire's website. Dr. Maguire is available for media interviews and can be reached using the information below or by email at patrickmaguiremd@gmail.com.
