King Charles has been diagnosed with a form of cancer, says Buckingham Palace.

It is not prostate cancer, but was discovered during his recent treatment for an enlarged prostate.

l hope he gets back to full health soon as l would not wish cancer on anybody.

They’re not saying what it is, which would incline me to think it may be not a good one ( not that there’s any good ones, but you know what I mean)

The coverage seems a bit over the top for a “good” one.

I did not have to wait, i had my operation for bladder cancer 3 weeks after it was diagnosed at Whiston Hospital under the NHS and i have not had to wait for any on the follow up treatments. My next camera check is next Monday.Fingers crossed it shows it has not come back

It would not surprise me if they announce he has bladder cancer, Prostate issues seem to go hand in hand with bladder cancer.

When I had my last colon capsule endoscopy, and many (benign) polyps were removed, they checked my prostate at the same time. They said that it is now procedure at my age, as they both appear at about the same period in life.

No swelling or abnormalities found, so they didn't bother with a PSA (prostate-specific antigen) blood test.

It could also be prostate cancer if that's what he was getting checked out.

They specifically said it wasn't.

Ok, I haven't actually read anything about it.

Not true mate. We do take care of everybody, peasants or not. The London Clinic does not have the resources, we do. They will have to pay us to provide them.

So you're saying he waits the same length of time we'd do?

Plenty of people have private health access, not just royals.
Bupa in the UK is estimated to have at least 2.3 million customers.

Dude111 06-02-2024 06:15

Very sad..... I hope they discovered it soon enough and can recover fully!!!

:(

Probably bowel cancer seeing as they were all up his bowels anyway. They won’t give details because it will lead to inevitable press features on post-op care and Fleet Street paparazzi trying to get pictures of the bulge under his shirt where he’ll be wearing a stoma belt. The last thing anyone wants is sidebars in the Sunday press discussing the King’s ongoing bowel care.

Pretty much the same as they didn’t elaborate on Kate’s ‘abdominal surgery’, for which read ‘hysterectomy’. They absolutely don’t want that discussed because as well as being very personal it has implications for the line of succession. Only obliquely of course, given that she’s borne three direct heirs to the throne, but again, Sunday papers, feature writers, blob pars …

Would they write that? I suspect they already know what cancer the King has, what cancer the Queen may have had, and what surgery Kate had but aren't publishing because it would look awful if they did.

Re: King Charles III diagnosed with cancer.
 
If the palace had confirmed any of it it would have been open season. As the palace has declined to give any details of what procedures either of them has had, they can’t. That sort of speculation is the sort of thing the papers used to get away with but they know they wouldn’t any more.

I had to turn the news off last night and same with this morning TV, endless interviews with no further information and constantly going round in circles over and over again to point of being really annoying. At least Ch4 had it right last night. It was a news flash at 6.15pm, gave all the info they had and then normal services resumed. So 3-4 mins max, other than that there's nothing else left to say there is no other information to give.

Cancer is horrible I watched a couple of people close to me go through it sadly one of them isn't here anymore so I do hope he recovers.

Sephiroth 11-02-2024 17:07

Re: King Charles III diagnosed with cancer.
 
Yes, notwithstanding that he is somewhat useless, at a human level we should hope that he recovers fully. The Monarchy as an institution supports our democracy (provided that the wrong generals are not in place).
