Trusting the wrong doctor almost killed him. Montel Williams interviews motivational speaker Edward "Eddie" Leigh regarding his dramatic medical story. He developed abdominal problems in 1997. His first doctor told him there was nothing seriously wrong. Two-and-a-half (2 ½) years later a new doctor discovers he has Stage III colon cancer. After surgery and a year of grueling chemotherapy, he is well today
This happened to me , I went to 3 different Dr.s for years and went through useless tests.They tested for everything but cancer.I finally had a colonoscopy and was diagnosed with late stage 3 colon cancer.I'm 46 and my Dr's told me there was absolutely no reason I should have this disease I've had resection surgery and am having chemo..and having a lot of pain ..Boy Howdy it suxx!
The moral of the story ...if you feel weird for any reason demand cancer screening !
