This November, we are shining a light on pancreatic cancer. As the cancer with the lowest survival rate and research funding, being aware of your risk and the symptom of pancreatic cancer is critical. Early detection is key to lifesaving treatments and increased survival outcomes.

62,210 Americans are 62,210 too many to battle this disease. Visit pancan.org for a risk assessment and other resources to help us ensure better outcomes and end the fight against pancreatic cancer.

This October, Phoenix PBM is proud to participate in National Breast Cancer Awareness Month. Breast cancer is one of the most common kinds of cancer in women after skin cancer. About 1 in 8 women born today in the United States will get breast cancer at some point.

The good news is that most women can survive breast cancer if it’s found and treated early.

If you are a woman age 40 to 49, talk with your doctor about when to start getting mammograms and how often to get them.

If you are a woman age 50 to 74, be sure to get a mammogram every 2 years. You may also choose to get them more often.

Talk to a doctor about your risk for breast cancer, especially if a close family member of yours had breast or ovarian cancer. Your doctor can help you decide when and how often to get mammograms.
