Multiple doctors told her it was internal hemorrhoids. When her son was 8 months old, she was diagnosed with stage 3 colorectal cancer. I was diagnosed with stage 3 cancer, and needed fertility treatmentsFinally, I found a doctor who took me seriously and ordered a colonoscopy. Shortly after I saw a specialist at Memorial Sloan Kettering Cancer Center who diagnosed me with stage 3 colorectal cancer. I knew I wanted more kids, but talking about fertility right after being diagnosed with cancer was overwhelming.
