Stop worrying: Bone cancer, either primary or metastatic, announces itself as a pain that's clearly not one of life's normal aches and pains, and/or a mass on a bone, or a sudden unexpected fracture. Unlike breast, prostate, colon, skin and cervical cancer, there's no worthwhile screens for primary bone cancer. If you have an obsessive fear of bone cancer, your physical can suggest reprogramming techniques.

Bone Cancer: Probably with a whole body bone scan, which will show radioactive uptake in abnormal bone lesions.
