How much do you know about your family medical history? This is Judy Gaman and this is your Stay Young Medical Minute. Family medical history can serve as a tool for you and your healthcare provider. Clues as to what diseases and disorders you may be more susceptible to will help your doctor be more in tune with your needs and develop a screening plan that makes sense for you and your body. Did you know that men may have an increased risk for prostate cancer if their mother had breast cancer? Or that 99% of colon cancer is curable if found early. So – ask the questions and get the history, but keep in mind, just because your dad had a heart attack or uncle Bob had lung cancer doesn’t mean a death sentence for you. Environmental influences and lifestyle choices play a big role in whether bad genes ever get turned on or stay dormant. You have the power to live a healthier future!
