Diagnosed with stage four bowel cancer despite almost no symptoms
Massey resident Tegan Hollier, 26, felt healthy until a pain under her left rib prompted her to visit her doctor.
So when the 26-year-old was diagnosed with stage four bowel cancer, it came as a bit of a shock, she said. Hollier's doctor initially believed she was suffering from a kidney infection, but after passing blood in her stools, she returned for further tests, where she was given the diagnosis of stage four bowel cancer "teetering" on curable.
Despite the diagnoses, Hollier said she's feeling positive. She urges others – especially young people – to be more vigilant with their heath and more accepting of the need to visit a doctor.
"Those little niggles you have, you can't just ignore them. I could have possibly dropped dead and not known why. I could have ended up at the point where they can't help me."
