Watching and hearing you get emotional reading your ct scan results brought back so many memories. I was diagnosed with chondrosarcoma bone cancer in September 2019 and I remember reading my results and seeing the words, “Highly indicative of a bone malignancy with a 6cm mass at the top of the manubrium...” It made me physically sick to read those results and to see the scans of the tumor in my sternum. And like you, I was told TWICE that my “lump was nothing”. When a doctor tells you something it’s human nature to accept their diagnosis and to put stock in it. I left both of those appointments like, “Welp! It’s nothing to worry about! The doctor says so!” I know cancer at our age is typically unlikely. But it hurts my heart to know I tried twice to catch this cancer and they dismissed me. For me, the call I got telling me to get to the ER right away for a ct scan and then being told “you definitely have bone cancer but we don’t yet know what kind or what grade” was the most traumatic part of my journey so far. And that’s also counting my massive chest wall reconstruction and two week hospital recovery. Hearing the words, “you have cancer” is a moment in time that rocks you to your core. Life, as we know it, changed in an instant. Thank you for posting this video. I sincerely wish you all the best for a happy and healthy future!
i am so sorry you had to go through that. it is so frustrating when you continuously ignored in the health system and then when shit hits the fan it's like.....so why didn't you listen to me? i hope you are doing better in this new year, even in this time of chaos. feel free to message me anytime to talk
Proud of you Kayla, I can relate to your story. I can be your mom age wise. That tells me conventional doctors never change as time goes on. That's normal, I guess, because they all go to the same old universities, study in the same old books. Take good care of yourself. You're not alone because The Almighty is with you, otherwise, you and I will not be alive today. Do good to yourself and to others, that's why we here for.
i never trusted my Dr. Went and arranged my own blood tests online - came back positive (for a different type of cancer), had it removed, very small, and now all is fine. But if I listened to my Dr....
It's hard to know what to do in these situations I think. Do we follow the doctor's orders or do what we think is right when no one is listening to us. I'm glad you're okay now!
Omgggg so basically, I got diagnosed with bone cancer last year, it was one of my most traumatic moment in my life. I remember it was beginning of covid and there was restrictions on going out and stuff, I remember my doc calling me on the phone for my results saying , I got stage 4 bone cancer an aggressive one and it’s localized around my knee area, and he was like you’ll loose your leg if we don’t do it ASAP !! it might spread and I was so devastated but yeah month later, they cut my r.leg. up to this day I’m still traumatized and sometimes I kinda feel like, I was rushed like I didn’t had no say and the fact that I had multiple test done with in those two months it was so intense and exhausting. But I’m glad I’m cancer free:)
Canada can keep its socialized medicine. Every patient on here from Canada had to fight for help. I’m a 2 time lung cancer survivor. It was caught so early all I had to have is lung surgery both times first in 2007 & the 2nd in 2011. My doctors were wonderful. Both time I found out one day & my drs had already scheduled me with surgeon in 2 days & surgery followed very quickly. I’m thankful The USA does not have socialized medicine. Similar stories as Canada also happen in Australia. Glad you are well
Yeah it probably wasn't the smartest thing for them to do...I'm doing much better now, healing every day and working towards a mindful life after cancer.
Hi, Kayla! How long you have been feel that chest pain? Bcs I also experienced about the chest pain in the few weeks ago. Its hurt whenever I tried to doing an inspirations or raise my left hand. Its stays like 1 week, and disappeard. Now I feel so anxious about this TT
hello! i had the chest pain for about 2 weeks before I started getting tests and biopsies done. I would say if you are having pain to firmly tell your doctor that you are concerned and see if they can at least do an X-ray to see if there is anything going on. If this pain you have keeps coming back then you should for sure get it looked at, your body may be trying to tell you something!
@@kaylatrem Hi, Kayla! Thank you so much for the answer! Yes, now I am considering myself to have an x ray in these week. Thank you so much for your advices
@@yonggukbang9672 Sometimes as young adults, doctors do not want to listen to us and any weird symptoms we are having - so it's always important to push and self-advocate! i hope the results come back clear and you are okay
@@kaylatrem Yeah. You are right. Whenever I am trying to say something about my health most of them always said that I am okay. "You are still young" they said. But then didnt realize how many these 'young peoples' got diagnosed by cancer. Again, thanks alot kay! Hope you also doing well and keep healthy
@@yonggukbang9672 exactly, a lot of doctors dismiss our symptoms and then we are left longer than should be before diagnosis, there is a huge stigma against young adults who go to the doctors and complain about not feeling right, we are always dismissed. there is not much to be done except to keep pushing, getting second opinions and demanding that they do some tests because we know our bodies and therefore when something isn't feeling right it should be taken seriously. i am doing well these days, still dealing with some long term effects of treatment but overall healthy! I'm always here to chat if you need someone :)
The doctor at the walk in clinic knew instantly that something was wrong after just listening while ER doctors with all the tools of the trade did not.
I'm binge watching UA-cam videos about lymphoma right now because I'm only 15 but I've had a lot of issues lately... basically went to my doctor and he took an x-ray. He said that there was a mass (probably a tumor) on my neck above my collarbone and that I needed a biopsy. I got one and let's just say it hurt. Anyways, he called me this morning and said that I'm (and obviously my mom) are going to need to come in tomorrow to discuss the results. I'm kinda scared that it might be lymphoma, which is what I originally suspected, but these videos are helping. I hope you're doing well.
If it does end up being lymphoma then I want you to know that you're going to get through this, you are stronger than this disease. If you ever need to talk, you can always message me through IG. I'm sending you good vibes 🙏 ❤️
So sorry it took so long for u to get diagnosed. Why doctors are not familiar with your symptoms I don't understand. The emergency room doctors should have found something relating to ur symptoms instead of sending u home . Hope u r cancer free now .
i wish i had found out sooner but i had no symptoms so i doubt anything would have gone differently. at least they found it when they did, even if it took a few extra days, I am grateful to those doctors for saving my life.
It often takes doctors quite awhile to find cancer. It took sick children's hospital 16 years to figure it out for me and if I hadn't left there to get a decent surgeon I would have died of brain cancer at 16. That was 41 years ago. God bless you.
I don't know if that was a sign, but God Almighty is real and He alone is the Creator of all miracles; there's only one God. Hope you're alright now, amen.
If this was in the US, you would have so much debt from all the medical bills - you’d just lose the will to live anyway. Or - in some cases - you can’t even get treatment until you can prove you can pay for it first. Sucks. I think - all things considered- I would take a 3,4,5,6 hour wait at the hospital but know everyone is getting treatment medically. 😢😔. Sucks. I’ve spent probably over $70,000 since 2011 in medical expenses and surgeries... as a single mom. So no chance for saving $ for emergencies, or retirement, etc.
I'm very grateful to be in Canada to receive this treatment. I'm sorry to hear about your bills and wait time, it must be very difficult. I hope you can keep pushing forward through it because you are worth living for ♥️
Breeze, I hear you. Thanks to the Democrats our healthcare has been screwed. I remember $50 a month insurance, 2500 annual max and insurance companies rarely kicked a claim back. That was in the 70 ,80 and through mid 90's. Then insurance decided if medicare could refuse claims, so could they.... and the down hill trip began. See when the government gets involved the industry will be ruined. The most recent example is when the government took over the federal student loan program.... now look at that mess...
True. As a Canadian living in Ontario I am blessed in that I don't have to pay my medical bills. Imagine 60 surgeries what that alone would cost. God bless you.
You r right Angela. We can call on Jesus for healing and expect to receive it, as we believe He can and wants to heal. Read Isaiah 53 vs 5. God bless you.
To everyone reading this please turn to Jesus, He loves you and wants to save you, He is the God of miracles, The bible tells us in Romans 10:13 For whosoever shall can upon the name of the Lord shall be saved, I seen God do amazing things in my life and in the lifes of people I know, He can do the same for you, In your darkest hour call on Him, God saved someone I love from an illness leading to death, There nothing impossible to God, Its as simple as asking Jesus into your heart to be your personal Lord and Saviour, Jesus will answer you, I know this because it happened to me when I called on God
Try praying blessings for Benny Hinn's Christian Ministry every day. God gives me healing when I do. You can try donating to his ministry also, God gives me healing that way too, I donate monthly.

If they are intelligent, doctors learn from every patient and every case. Love you.
that is very true! what a great perspective, thank you :)
Women are often ignored when it comes to medical diagnoses. You have to take charge of your own health and dont give up!
Exactly!!

We do have muscles in the front of our chests. I pulled one once and it hurt as bad as when I broke one before.
Maybe I did pull it but it just didn't show up on the x-ray?? Not sure 😞
