This site is under development by the Jupiter-Tequesta,
Florida
UsToo Prostate Support Group (J-TUT). It is intended to be
useful to the members and others interested in prostate cancer and
other diseases of the prostate.
Some 230,000 men
will be diagnosed with this disease in 2006 and almost 30,000 will die
from it!It is the second leading cause of death among men.
Afro-American men have even higher rates and face a major threat to
their lives. The J-TUT Support Group is open to all races and
welcomes participation from the Afro community.
Awareness still lags behind in the adult male cohort.
Controversy now rages about the value of PSA screening. Many men are
befuddled! We hope to help eliminate some of the confusion.
All J-TUT
Support Group programs for the coming year will be listed herein.
We have
created a Medical Advisory Board to respond to visitors' questions on
any and all prostate health issues. So send in your questions and
get an answer from the "pros".
Welcome to
J-TUT's
new venture.
Ideas and suggestions are welcomed by the Editor.
- David S. Most,
PhD, Editor and Chairman, J-TUT PC Support Group.
