PLEASE NOTE: The Sun’s headline is misleading – Brian was quite careful to say that the results of the prostate cancer tests are not all in yet. Regrettably this reporting is not very careful

QUEEN GUITARIST BRIAN MAY SAYS PROSTATE CANCER TESTS HAVE COME BACK NEGATIVE
13 January 2014
QUEEN rocker Brian May has had “good news” from docs probing his cancer scare, he has told worried fans.
The 66-year-old admitted last month he was having urgent tests for the disease after suffering terrible back pain.
He said: “All the tests have come back with good reports so most of the ills that were possibilities a couple of weeks ago are now ruled out.”
On Friday, the guitarist wrote on his SOAPBOX blog he just had a biopsy after docs found “some small possible problem areas” on his prostate.
He said: “I’ll get the results next week and things should be clearer.”
He urged men to get their prostate checked.
