Multiple Doctor Visits Before They Found CANCER! - McKenzie | Cervical Cancer | The Patient Story

McKenzie Erickson shares her journey after being diagnosed with stage 3c2 cervical cancer at just 26 years old. Her story begins with a devastating miscarriage that led to unexpected and severe pain, which doctors initially dismissed until further testing revealed the shocking truth.

In this cancer vlog, McKenzie recounts the whirlwind of emotions and decisions she and her husband had to make, including the difficult choice between surgery and aggressive treatment. She discusses the impact of her treatment on her daily life, the struggles with hair loss, and the ongoing anxiety of waiting for her follow-up PET scan.

Thank you, McKenzie, for sharing your story to help others.
