Thanks for posting the articles. The first one was timely and highlighted the need to proactively monitor key items. It supported the need to avoid hyper focusing on cancer cells only (which is easy to do).

@zmarkv I agree. It adds a little extra weight to the ongoing discussion about whether oncologists should be ordering and reviewing blood tests for things like cholesterol and HbA1C (diabetes) as part of routine monitoring beside the usual tests like PSA, instead of assuming that the primary care physician will take care of anything metabolic-related.
