    Hi All,

    Interesting reading in TIME magazine.  Dr Oz on cover talking about his scare with colon cancer and how he was a "lousy patient" – not following instructions pre-test, cancel/resched follow up tests, anxiety over results, telling family and friends…Although it was not mel, still touched on what we go through and put a sense of "normalcy" to us as patients with our fears.

    Also in this issue was a brief commentary on one man's journey through "Scanxiety".  Pretty cool how he describes his experience.
