Katie Thurston Admits ‘Distrust’ Of Doctors Amid Cancer Fight
During her time on reality TV, Katie Thurston wasn’t afraid to tell it like it is. She famously told her contestants on The Bachelorette to “GET OUT” of the mansion if they weren’t there for the right reasons, AKA to find love. So, it is expected that she’s blunt, but fans are still taken by surprise sometimes about how real Katie is about battling cancer.
She was diagnosed with breast cancer earlier this year. She chronicles every aspect of the battle for her life on her main Instagram feed or the Boobie Broadcast channel she created to update her followers.
In one recent Boobie Broadcast, the former Bachelorette admitted that she has “distrust” of doctors after a misdiagnosis almost ruined her life. Keep reading for all the details.
Katie Thurston Reveals She Made Plans If She Didn’t Return Home
Katie Thurston hasn’t felt like herself since she was diagnosed with breast cancer in February. The diagnosis came as a huge shock because she’s only 34. While she is determined to fight the cancer, it has made life a living h*ll for her in many ways. She’s been dealing with several common side effects from the cancer treatment, including hair loss and depression.
In her latest Boobie Broadcast, she shared how being a planner is both good and bad. On the upside, it caused her to add beneficiaries to her bank account. But on the other hand, it also made her think about not coming home.
Katie Thurston recently joined her husband, Jeff Arcuri, in Greece for the end of his overseas comedy tour. She revealed in the social media post that she had made plans with the dog sitter in case they didn’t come home. That’s the kind of thing she thinks about constantly now that she’s been diagnosed with cancer.
Bachelorette Star Opens Up About ‘Distrust’ Of Doctors Amid Cancer Fight
Katie Thurston has a three-month MRI scan and checkup coming up. The scan will reveal if the cancer treatment is working at all or if they need to change course.
She asked her followers who have battled cancer to tell her the good, bad, and ugly about their own experiences with the follow-up scans. Katie Thurston openly admitted to having a “distrust” of doctors after her previous experience.
The Bachelorette alum was initially diagnosed with an aggressive Stage 3 breast cancer that required chemotherapy. However, she moved across the country shortly after that diagnosis. Her new team of doctors redid the tests and discovered Katie Thurston actually had Stage 4, but a form that didn’t require chemotherapy. The misdiagnosis had a major impact on her decisions before the second opinion.
Katie Thurston plans to share the results from her checkup with fans, whether the news is good or bad.
