About anal Cancer and test to predict it.

[Guest guest]

I am very frustrated at the lack of access to screening, or pap test for this problem. My doc says there just are not enough people trained right now to read the tests. This is very frustrating, it seems to me we will just have to wait till there are symptoms before we can have them go and remove any problems. I would much rather have the things zapped before they turn into anything where we need surgery or radiation.Get trade secrets for amazing burgers. Watch "Cooking with Tyler Florence" on AOL Food.
