Former UK PM David Cameron reveals he was diagnosed with prostate cancer

SUMMARY

David Cameron, former Prime Minister, announced he was diagnosed with prostate cancer last year but is now cancer-free. His wife, Samantha, urged him to get tested after hearing about a related diagnosis from Nick Jones. Cameron's PSA test results were concerning, leading to a diagnosis confirmed by a biopsy. He underwent "focal" therapy, which was less invasive than traditional methods.

Cameron supports a national screening program for prostate cancer, emphasizing that early detection could save lives. He believes advanced technologies make such screenings urgent. Prostate Cancer UK applauded Cameron for sharing his journey and raising awareness about the disease.
