A few people in my family have had bladder cancer, so it's something that I'm always watching out for. I didn't know that usually people under 40 don't have to worry about this disease! That's good news for me...for now, at least. It's also good to know that tobacco could increase the risk for bladder cancer. Thanks for all of this helpful info!

Bladder cancer is not just for seniors my mate got it in his late 30's. He was appearringly healthly,didn't smoke,didn't fit the "profile". He went to the doctor who was younger than him and was told repeatlyit was a little infection and was given antibotics. When he was urinating bright red blood he was sent to a specialist who told him he had stage 4 cancer and not long to live. They told us if we had caught it sooner the outcome would have been different. I'M STILL UPSET ABOUT IT,we did catch it sooner the doctors profiled Jeff,now he is gone and my daughter is out of a daddy,she and I loved more than anything.J. held no grudges and wrote the doctor a nice letter tellin him not to profile next time.
