Why You Should Advocate For Your Own Health. How A Woman Beat Stage 4 Cancer/ Interview with Tammy Alameda
Beautiful Second Act08/26/21 • 25 min
When you know something is wrong and doctors give you an unsatisfying diagnosis, dig deeper. Tammy Alameda was told her weight loss wasn't to be concerned about and her troubles were nothing more than hemorrhoids. Months later and several doctor appointments that gave no answers, Tammy saw another doctor who thought she should have had the colonoscopy she wanted. But it was too late. An ER visit and agonizing pain proved that not only did Tammy have a problem, she almost lost her life.
Being told you may only have 24 hours to live is something unimaginable. But for Tammy, she knew her time wasn't up. Her diagnosis of Stage 4 Cancer didn't detour her from the fact that she had a lot of living left to do, no matter what the doctors said.
In this episode, Tammy shares her terrifying story that has a happy ending. It is so important that you seek answers no matter what your diagnosis. Always take someone with you to get all the information, and above all...NEVER GIVE UP!
