Geez. I had a colonoscopy at 24 because my mom was diagnosed with stage 4 colorectal cancer when she was in her mid 40s. It was nerve-wracking, but everything went smoothly. I'm due for another (the pandemic messed my schedule up), and now I'm freaked out.

I'm glad Travis is doing better, and I think it's really cool that his ex wife and Kourtney seem to get along.

Glad to hear that he'll be alright. Pancreatitis is no joke.

My dad almost died 8 years ago when his pancreas fused with his gall bladder and he had to have laparoscopic surgery to fix it. He had plenty of warning signs that something was wrong (severe pain and increasingly viscous urine) and did nothing until it almost killed him.

Listen to your body folks!

My dad had night sweats a year before he was diagnosed with cancer and it was stage four by the time he was diagnosed. I wish he had paid attention to it.

one of my uncle's best friends just died due to not listening to his body. He had a cough for literally a year and didn't look into it until he started having problems swallowing due to his throat being sore. Turns out he had cancer EVERYWHERE; the worst being the entire length of his esophagus covered in tumors. He ate right, worked out, the whole thing, but he didn't go to the doctor because of he was 'healthy.' he was dead within 4 weeks of finding out he had cancer.

Men are the worst with going to doctors.

Accidentally snip, they do it so quickly. Glad he's on the mend.

This man has been through so much.

I'm glad he's okay!

I feel like "breaks his silence" is such a weird way of phrasing this headline though. Like he witnessed a crime or something?

I effing hate the "breaks his silence". Unless we're talking about years long refusal to discuss something, it's so click-baity and dramatic and lazy
