After my twin sister was diagnosed with cancer, I became more wary of cancer myself. In April 2020, I felt a fullness in my stomach. I told my family doctor and she told me to take exlax. The feeling persisted but she refused to order a ct scan. She orderd numerous ultrasounds and finally an MRI. 6 doctors looked at it. One recommended my markers be tested. My gp begrudgingly ordered marker tests but was adament it was endometriosis. She also wrote in my file, 'not over her sister's death'. She was attributing it to survivor's guilt.
Even though my markers returned high, she told me that 5 out of the 6 doctors thought it was endometriosis and referred me to a specialist. By then, the lockdowns were in full swing and I couldn't get an appointment until Jan 2022. I got passed to a male doctor which I expressed upset at. He then cancelled saying he 'didn't want to start on the wrong foot'. I forgot about the whole thing until February 2021 when I was showing odd symptoms. I went to ER. They did a CT scan and diagnosed me with stage 4 cancer that night. I'm angry at how I was dismissed by everyone except that 1 doctor who suggested I get the markers tested back in April 2020. If my gp had just ordered the CT, I could have caught it early.
I can't dwell on it, but sometimes I feel a flash of anger about how dismissive my doctors were. None of them ever apologized. My gp even tried to say I was ignoring her attempts to contact me even though I had fired her. I made it clear I was never going back, yet she never accepted responsibility.

My daughter was two weeks over due and ended up having a bowl movement inside, and they had to put me out and clean out my uterus. As they were in there there was these areas all over the inside of my uterus. They took biopsies and sent me home. Two weeks later, rushed in for an emergency partial hysterectomy. My daughter literally saved my life from a rare form of cancerous cells formed all over the inside and not the usual outside. Then 5 yesrs later had trouble swallowing and found lumps in my neck. Not the usual lymthnoids but huge masses. Sure enough they removed 3, 11mm lymthnoids and 2, 9mm lymthnoids on the right side of my neck. Two years later happened on the left amd had over 7 lymthnoids removed. I am now cancer free for 6 years!!!

My husband died of pancreatic cancer at age 51. He went to several types of docs for stomach and back pain for a year. Consistently losing weight, pain kept him(and me) up at night. Not one of them ordered imaging! They attributed it to something muscular because he used a jackhammer at work. During the year, of course, things got worse, until one Saturday morning when he couldn't even lift his head up to eat breakfast, I dragged him to the ER where he was finally diagnosed. After their testing that morning, a tech came into the room to get something and quite casually said, "Anthony, I saw your scans and I'm so sorry. I suggest planning a trip somewhere wonderful with your family." We said, "What? What are you talking about?" He hurried out and eventually the doc came in to explain he was stage 4 and had about 6 months to live. What a shock - the guy was a bull, worked heavy construction, never sick. It was unreal. We just didn't have any idea it was something serious. Love to all in this thread who've been thru similar circumstances 💔 and thank you Dr. Campbell for this clear and helpful video.

Great video, can relate to this, living with an incurable disease is so hard, but you just have to live life day by day as it goes by (Cancer sucks)~
