English musician Brian May heaved a sigh of relief after doctors cleared him off any chances of cancer.
May, lead guitarist of iconic rock band Queen, was informed of the good news by his doctors over a telephone call by his doctor.
"Well, I got a phone call from my specialist this evening. He said 'I have a good news. The result of your prostrate biopsy is here, and we did not find any cancer cells," May wrote on his blog.
The 66-year-old rocker then celebrated the good news over a cup of tea at his studio while creating music with Freddie Mercury, John Deacon and Roger Taylor (other three members of the band).
"So finally, as far as that vital organ is concerned, I am -thank God- in the clear.
"It's a great relief. I celebrated in the studio with a cup of tea. Hey, I know how to rock," he posted on his blog.
Following back pain last month, May had undergone multiple tests to detect cancer, if any.
"So I've been having a series of blood tests, ultrasounds, and various kinds of scans, to see if they could rule out various kinds of cancer," May had said earlier.
