Are you avoiding Colon Cancer Screening?

Discover the facts and you’ll come out hiding.

Colon cancer is one of the most preventable, yet least prevented cancers. If you are 50 years old or older, it’s important for you to get screened.

Why? Screening offers the opportunity to find colon cancer or polyps to stop disease progression.

Avoid Cancer by removing precancerous polyps. Even with the high rates of colon cancer, if its found early enough, it is highly treatable. Four out of five with colon cancer have no prior family history. Did you know that your risk of colon cancer increases dramatically after the age of 50?

But with regular screening, over 90% of cases can be stopped before the cancer advances.

Stage One : 94% Survival Rate

Stage Two: 82% Survival Rate

Stage Three: 67% Survival Rate

Stage Four: 11% Survival Rate

You have screening options:

Noninvasive Screening:

*CT Colonography (Virtual Colonoscopy) uses computed tomography to create both 2-D and 3-D views of the inside of the colon and rectum to detect precancerous growths (polyps).

*Fecal Occult Blood Tests detect blood in your stool, which may indicate colon cancer.

Invasive Screening:

*Colonoscopy uses a thin tube with a camera attached to allow your doctor to look inside the colon and check for cancer or precancerous growths (polyps).

Future of Screening:

*On the horizon, researchers are looking into advanced DNA technology as a potential noninvasive method to detect both cancer and precancerous cells.

*Noninvasive tests may be completed at home.

Talk to your doctor about which screening method if right for you.

Cut your flu risk in half: Washing your hands at least three times a day can help.

Posted on January 28, 2018 by jwatrel

Cut your flu risk in half: Washing your hands at least three times a day can help.

Read for more information on cold and flu:

*Preventation

*Symptoms

*Treatment

Preventing colds and the flu is in your hands.

Following the tips below can cut your flu risk in half.

Wash your hands often!

*Use soap and water. Use a towel to turn off the faucet and open the door.

*If there’s no water, use a hand sanitizer that contains alcohol.

Stop the spread of germs.

Cover your nose and mouth with a tissue when you cough or sneeze.

Disinfect solid surfaces at work and home often. (e.g. door knobs, TV remotes, etc.)

Don’t touch your eyes, nose and mouth.

Avoid close contact with people who have a cold or the flu.

How can you tell if it’s a cold or the flu?

Cold: Symptoms develop slowly and are usually milder. May include:

*Fever up to 102F

*Runny or stuffy nose

*Mild Fatigue

*Slight muscle aches

*Mild Headache

*Sore throat

*Sneezing

*Watery eyes

*Can last 2-14 days

Flu: Symptoms come on suddenly and are more severe. May include:

*Fever over 102F

*Stuffy nose sometime

*Extreme fatigue

*Dry cough

*Muscle aches, especially in arms, legs and back.

*Headache

*Nausea

*Chills and sweat

*Loss of appetite

*Can last 2-7 days but cough and fatigue may linger for 2-3 weeks

Fact: Antibiotics don’t work on cold and flu viruses.

Treating colds and the flu is about comfort.

*Get lots of rest, especially while you have a fever. Rest helps your body fight illness.

*Drink lots of fluids. This helps loosen mucus.

*Soothe a sore throat by gargling with warm salt water or try throat spray or lozenges.

*Use saline (salt water) nose drops.

*Avoid alcohol and tobacco. They can make the cold symptoms worse.

If you have flu symptoms, call your healthcare provider if :

*you are 65 years old or older, pregnant or have a chronic medical condition such as asthma, diabetes or heart disease.

*your illness seems severe.

*you have a young child with flu symptoms.

Your doctor may prescribe a flu antiviral drug. But it works best if started within 2 days of getting sick.

Tylenol is the #1 doctor-recommended brand of pain reliever/fever reducer for cold and flu symptoms. Tylenol is different than other pain relievers.

*Tylenol (acetaminophen) won’t irritate your stomach the way aspirin, naproxen sodium (Aleve) or even ibuprofen (Motrin, IB, Advil) can.

*Tylenol doesn’t interfere with aspirin heart therapy the way ibuprofen can.

*When taken at recommended doses, Tylenol won’t affect kidney conditions the way ibuprofen, naproxen sodium or aspirin.

*Use Tylenol products for reducing fever and relieving body aches, sore throat and headache.

Read your medicine labels. Always read and follow the label. Do not take more than directed and never take more than one medicine that contains acetaminophen at the same time.

*Disclaimer: This information was taken from a pamphlet provided by Tylenol. If there is any additional information that you need, please call the above number for more information.

Pet Poison Helpline

(855) 289-0358

is available 24/7*

*There is a one-time, per-incident consultation fee of $49

Have the following information ready when calling:

*What your pet ingested and when

*How much your pet ingested (how many pills, milligram strength, etc.)

*Pet’s current weight

*Pet’s known medical history, including medications.

What to do in an emergency

Stay calm so you can assess the situation and communicate clearly with your veterinarian. Most importantly don’t administer at-home treatment without first seeking veterinary advice.

Scan the surroundings

*Safety remove any remaining poisonous material from your pet’s reach.

*Gather the container or substance to bring to the veterinary hospital or describe to Pet Poison Helpline.

*Collect a sample if your pet had vomited

Get help

If your pet is unconscious, convulsing or having difficulty breathing, go the nearest emergency veterinary hospital. While they are stabilizing your pet, call Pet Poison Helpline at 855-289-0358 for treatment guidelines and recommendations.

Household toxins

When using common household chemicals such as cleaning solutions, antifreeze and fragrance sprays, make sure there’s adequate ventilation and thoroughly wipe up any spills. Also, tightly close bottles and containers and stow them safely in cabinets that pets can’t get into.

Non-ingested poisons

Poisons aren’t always ingested; some can be inhaled or cause chemical burns on the skin.

Inhaled poisons: Carbon monoxide, smoke and chemical fumes.

Skin poisons: Ammonia, lye, drain and toilet cleaners, tea tree oil.

Toxic table scraps

Though sharing ‘just a bite’ of food with your pet seems harmless, many human foods can be dangerous, even deadly for dogs and cats:

*Alcohol

*Caffeine

*Chocolate

*Fatty foods

*Grapes and raisins

*Macadamia nuts

*Onions and garlic

*Salt (high doses)

*Xylitol, a natural sugar substitute

Human Medications

Never give your pet human relievers like acetaminophen (Tylenol, Excedrin) or non-steroidal anti-inflammatory (NSAID) medications like aspirin, ibuprofen (Advil, Motrin) or naproxen (Aleve). These drugs cause liver and kidney failure in pets.

Pet Medications

Keep human drugs in a separate place from your pet’s drugs. Accidentally giving human medications to pets is one of the most common per poisoning emergencies. Never give your cat medications meant for a dog. Cats unique metabolic pathways make them more sensitive to many drugs; giving your cat pain relievers or flea/tick made for dogs can be lethal.

Be Prepared

Program your home and cell phones with the numbers of your veterinarian, nearest emergency hospital and Pet Poison Helpline. It’s also a good idea to sign up for a Nationwide pet insurance plan so you’ll be ready for anything.

We’re here to help

Nationwide offers pet insurance plans that cover accidental poisoning and more. Get a fast, no-obligation quote today.

You love to drive and have some spare time on your hands. Think about what fun and how rewarding your help and companionship would be to a senior who can no longer get behind the wheel.

All of us have a stake in helping to ensure that older adults and the visually impaired can remain active once they stop driving. The Independent Transportation Network* offers safe rides in automobiles, 24 hours a day, 7 days a week.

*You help seniors stay independent and healthy by taking them to visit friends, to the gym or to doctor’s appointment.

*You get mileage reimbursement for part of the ride and transportation credits for the rest. Save these credits for your own future use, transfer them to a loved one or donate them to the Road Scholarship Program for low-income riders.

We’ll work around your schedule

Provide one afternoon a week or a few hours during the month. You’ll receive training and we’ll arrange your driving assignments and routes around your schedule. You can even pick up a rider on your way to work and do a good deed before the day’s begun.
