This post discusses the experiences of Fran Drescher who talked to eight doctors before finally meeting a doctor who discovered her cancer.
Ms. Drescher is the famous comedienne who is bright and persistent. Her body told her something was wrong; and that brought her to her search for an answer to reasons why she was not feeling well.
After numerous discussions with eight doctors, she located a knowledgeable doctor who advised that she should perform a D&C, which ultimately discovered her cancer.
Ms. Drescher then underwent a biopsy. Doctor told her that her cancer was a Stage one cancer and treatable. Her sister, Nadine, a practicing nurse, however, suggested a second biopsy, and her doctor agreed. The second biopsy proved that her cancer was more advanced, stage four, and ultimately, it was decided to do a hysterectomy on Ms. Drescher.
Her experiences point up the need to pursue the right doctor, the need for a biopsy , and maybe a second biopsy, and to be certain to follow up on your own with the treatment you are receiving.
