The Patient Story

Күн бұрын

In this cancer vlog, Anne shares her inspiring yet frustrating journey to a stage 4 lung cancer diagnosis. Despite having a lung nodule flagged years earlier, doctors dismissed Anne's worsening back pain as nothing serious since she was a lifelong non-smoker. It took multiple ER visits and self-advocacy before Anne finally received an MRI that revealed widespread metastatic cancer in her spine and she was diagnosed with stage 4 B non-small cell lung cancer.
She shares how she processed her diagnosis, starting a targeted therapy (Tagrisso) and later enrolling in a clinical trial.

A lot of times I wonder what kind of grades my doctors earned in medical school. They are taught 'standard of care'. More focus should be on "do no harm". (I imagine a lot of doctors are busy-as we all are- with work demands, family and finances. The more patients they can schedule and see, the more that adds to their ability to pay off student loans, cars, homes, kids, vacations, etc. )

My brother died of stomach cancer in 2002. He was aged 38. Because he was relatively young he was constantly dismissed by various doctors. Finally, and out of sheer desperation and exhaustion he phone called cold a surgeon he had been recommended. He saw the surgeon the next day, and upon having something as routine as an endoscopy, a tumor was discovered, the size of a grapefruit. Stage 4. He was given' a small number of months'. He died almost three months to the day of the prognosis. My parents died grief stricken. Grief over their loss and what could have been but for the negligence.

Look into soy. My husband had Non-Hodgkins Lymphoma 20 years ago. The common denominator is that he had been drinking soy smoothies for over a year before this. Jenny was a vegan. All the “fake” meat and “fake” cheese, etc is made from soy and the soybean was changed to a GMO. Along with her having the gene, I believe soy is causing vegans to get cancer. I also know a few other KZfaqrs who got cancer and are vegans.

My 29 year old stepson loved to hike. He had been complaining about shortness of breath for several months. His regular dr said it was because he had hernia surgery. I'm a nurse and I was like no way. He worked as a lab tech so he did blood work on himself. The pathologist told him to go see someone immediately. He never smoked. He was diagnosed with lung cancer in Oct 2007 turned 30 in 2007 and died Jan 2nd 2008. He didn't even live 3 months. We still blame his regular dr for not listening to him.

I had a friend who had a spot on her lung for three years. Her doctor chose to follow it to see if the spot changed in size. She was a non-smoker. No one in her family smoked. She did have a family history of various cancers. She got sick with a persistent cough that wouldn't go away. Another x-ray showed fluid in her lung, which led to a stage 4 cancer dianosis. Inoperable. She died within a year. The fact that the doctor knew the "spot" was there for all those years and didn't do further testing was mind-blowing. It was maddening and devastating to know she could have had a better outcome if treated sooner.

Same thing happened to my mom. She went to the Mayo Clinic (12/95) complaining of severe back pain. They told her it was "all in her head", told her to take OTC pain relievers, and sent her home. Then on 08/27/98, she was diagnosed with large cell carcinoma from head to toe. Without radiation & chemo, they gave her 4 months at best to live. So she put herself through months of radiation (to her brain) and chemotherapy and died on 08/12/99 at the age of 65. It bought her just shy of a year...of misery. She knew something was seriously wrong, but the doctors did not listen to her, and she clearly did not advocate hard enough for herself. It's sad because she had a LOT of plans & a LOT MORE living to do! Thank you for making this video, for sharing your story, and for encouraging people to speak up, to be persistent, and to be heard! It could mean the difference between living or dying!!! God bless you and you are in my prayers!!!🙏🏼🙏🏼

For sure and govt restrictions. I have had the full effects fromPSA since a teen but it wasn’t until I diagnosed it during lockdown that they agree and I am in too much agony despite biologics. I was a tns- trauma nurse specialist and I do what I can everyday but over the years have been treated in the worst ways imaginable. It affected my heart, mind, vessels and is consuming my joints but God forbid anyone from allowing me the dose that helped me for my pain. Wasn’t my Dr’s desire, they know how sick I am but rheumatologist wants to put people who are not depressed on meds that will cause even more problems because many just don’t look up side effects and the pts chart. I am considering just stopping everything because I am in too much agony and have seen doctors since I was 20 and I am 54 and disabled. I enjoyed working and I tutored A &P, chem , physiology, physics and helped physicians with their boards. My BP goes into the 300s because I don’t have enough ability to control it. All I can say is that I know that humans will have a huge intervention coming, one that is needed on a worldwide scale, and it will end our crisis. Take care!😊

Thank you for being open minded! When in labor with my son, the nurses called my OB and told him I was ready. He brushed them off and said it was my first baby and I’d be pushing for a long time so he took his sweet time. My mom,also a nurse, requested they call him again. She was fuming. My son’s heart rate was decelerating with every contraction. I laid on my side and waited for an hour because I knew something was wrong and didn’t trust the resident to deliver my baby. My doctor finally arrived, I pushed 3 times, and in 15 minutes my 10 pound, 23-1/2 inch son was born with the cord wrapped twice around his neck. My doctor is lucky he survived. My point is, doctors need to stop putting patients in a box. Everyone is different! Thankfully my current NP is also listening to me and ordered a chest CT for my recent persistent wheezing cough and chest pressure. I’m a nonsmoker and don’t have asthma.

What the oncologist doesn’t know is that my friend started taking Fenbendazole, a canine dewormer, that has demonstrated anti-cancer effects. It is cheap and OTC. If I had cancer, I would certainly try it.

I agree with you that these several doctors seemed to be quite uninformed; and therefore in my opinion, reckless. You are so well spoken, so focused on your educational talk and are definitely an advocate for early testing. Your attitude is inspiring. Wishing you and your daughter all the best.😘🌷 I just read that Anne has died. Rest in peace beautiful lady.

If you lived in this area you’d be scrambling to find *any* healthcare professional who could see you in maybe a few months-and that’s with “good insurance.” Same with dentists and veterinarians. Even with incentives for healthcare people like NPs, RNPs, MDs etc., attracting and retaining professionals is extremely difficult. To get to large regional hospitals it takes hours, mostly on two lane roads that may be experiencing whiteouts regularly in the winter. Stay in Michigan, my friend unless you want to bring your expertise here or to any other remote, underserved area. You would be cause for a community celebration!

Look at Jenny Apple lung cancer journey, how docs kept dismissing her symptoms for 1 year, she had to beg n cry for a chest scan and when finally had it done she was stage 3 non smoking lung cancer. Unfortunately she died last year at 36, young mother of 2 children. So sad for her. Darn if i started having bad symptoms i would advocate strongly for myself to get scanned. Even if i had to say lung cancer ran in my family so I would maybe be taken more seriously.

My neighbor has been diagnosed with stage 4 lung cancer, and we're all praying for her. I'm so sorry to hear Anne passed away. She was a very brave woman to face this terrible disease with such strength and courage. Her explanation of the difficulties just getting taken seriously enough to get properly tested resonates strongly with me. I see it with my own health struggles and my wife's as well. We're both having bad pains throughout our body and getting the run around from insurance. I keep telling her please just pay it out of pocket, get the MRI, don't let some high 3 digit cost stand in the way of getting answers but she is too stubborn. Seeing Anne's video has pushed me to push her. I'm going to make sure she gets answers here soon. Thank you for taking the time to put out this message, Anne. I hope it helps a lot of people get the answers they need before it's too late.

I’m from Canada and I’ve was just diagnosed with stage one lung cancer. My specialist has been following me for 2 years. What started as a small nodule that wasn’t showing much change after Cat scans showed as active when he ordered a PETscan. This was followed by a biopsy that confirmed it. Within days of my biopsy I saw my doctor again. It was lung cancer. A little over 2 weeks later , I’m scheduled for surgery where the upper lobe of my right lung will be removed. I’m scared but optimistic. I thank my family doctor and the specialist for their great care.

Time cannot be wasted & gut feelings that something is wrong cannot be ignored. The US medical system is broken so be your own advocate. Very sad to hear her cancer battle struggle. Quality of life & pain free is all that matters in life. Let her story be a teachable lesson & dont think its not going to happen to you or a loved one because cancer touches everyone sooner or later.

I had no other symptoms except an Increasing shortness of breath that I put off as being old and out of shape. The tumor in my upper right lobe was seen 2 years before and explained as possible radiation scarring from 16 year prior breast radiation for a small breast cancer tumor. I can understand the frustration with getting the medical community to sit up and take notice. I am a former smoker, 1/2 pack a day quit 35 years ago.

It was devastating. I had breast cancer after her and forced the doctors to do give me a complete hysterectomy after the double mastectomy and chemo. They said they’re not in the business of removing healthy organs from people, I said take those organs out now. They did. We all have our own way of handling things.

Nearly 60% of East Asian women who got lung cancer have never smoked. To my surprised she managed to get insurance approved for low dose CT scan without contrast. Luckily, the result was negative. I did have thyroid Cancer, my sister died from colon cancer at age 36 and my father died from liver cancer. I appreciate my doctor who would listen to my concerns.Other cancer and genetic disposition were the reason she put down to get insurance approve the scan. I did enroll with the research from the UCSF, Stanford and UC Davis. Unfortunately, I live in San Diego and in Bay Area.

Thank you for you experience. I have been a nurse for many years and experienced severe pain for over 28 years, no help for diagnosis. During lockdown I got the final puzzle piece when I got severe uveitis. I have very different PSA, Lyme’s with fibromyalgia and my joints lock up and I was told to go home while having an MI and hadn’t slept literally over a week and a half so I was in a cytokine storm and likewise stroked. Being a nurse affects some doctors and it should not but because of having been belittled for so many years and not getting help my joints are all bad and there isn’t a way anymore with all of the spondylosis, spurs etc. I have some little internal masses on my lungs and kidneys but don’t qualify anymore for major surgery. I am glad that someone listened to you and I was relieved when listening for you. I certainly try always to keep in mind that so many suffer and the appearance of suffering can trick us due to perhaps maybe they have had it so long and therefore are told that they look great. I was always told why didn’t I exercise more even after dropping 70 lbs in one month and my therapist didn’t think I could make it. Long term pain like PSA is considered just as painful as bone cancer yet those who have severe form like me who don’t want to be in bed are limited by governmental rules and not physicians. My doctors fought and I have no recourse other than to hope I go fast. If it had another name I would be treated differently. I always think of the patients that I treated as a trauma nurse specialist and keep my heart set on the future without these terrible infirmities. Take care😊

Sorry to hear that you have cancer and also sorry that they treated you the way they did. I hope that you showed all the doctors that denied you the care that you had a reason to be worried. Hopefully they could learn from this situation.

I'm a nurse too and my understanding is a low CBC warrants further investigation. I'm really sorry you had to go through this. I've had very unproductive, expensive and unpleasant ER experiences myself. It's hard to access the system. I hope you get what you need going forward.

Heads up - do NOT wait for insurance. Call the imaging facility and make your own appointment. In my case, the cost of an MRI was cheaper than the insurance deductible. STOP relying on The System - you have to be proactive.
