A 35-year-old client is diagnosed with familial adenomatous polyposis (FAP). He says, "My mom died from colon cancer and I don't want to have the same thing happen to me." What should the nurse consider in formulating a response to this statement?
◦ The client's lifetime risk for colorectal cancer exceeds 75%.
◦ Testing to identify if the disease is genetic or environmental will be done before a prognosis is made.
◦ Because the client is still young, cancer is likely years in the future.
◦ Clients with FAP are treated primarily with chemotherapeutic drugs even if cancer is not noted.

Every flu season is different, and even healthy people can get extremely sick from the flu, as well as spread it to others. The flu season can begin as early as October and last as late as May. Every person over six months of age should get an annual flu vaccine. The vaccine cannot cause you to get influenza, but in some seasons, may not be completely able to prevent you from acquiring influenza due to changes in causative viruses. The viruses in the flu shot are killed—there is no way they can give you the flu. Minor side effects include soreness, redness, or swelling where the shot was given. It is possible to develop a slight fever, and body aches, but these are simply signs that the body is responding to the vaccine and making itself ready to fight off the influenza virus should you come in contact with it.
