If I could punch a article in it's face I would punch this one. Seriously.
The article is labeled
Scary Study: Most of Us Don't Recognize Common Cancer Symptoms
Hypochondriac panic settle in. What the shit? This article immediately without reading screams panic.
However, once I read it, because who wouldn't, I realized this is the most idiotic article I may have ever read. The study states "Past research has shown that cancer patients often realize, after the fact, that they failed to grasp the gravity of their early symptoms and, as a result, they didn’t seek help as quickly as they should have." Like way to go researchers...no shit. I think everyone who has or has had cancer wishes they would have gone to the doctor earlier.
They list these "warning signs of cancer" as unexplained lumps, a change in appearance of a mole, unexplained weight loss, and get this....tiredness and dizziness.
Let me tell you researchers...
If I went to the doctors for any of these symptoms they would most likely send me home with anxiety meds because that is what they do. Oh you have a past history, of anxiety? That explains it...boom Xanax, and while we are at it, let's up your dose.
If I went to the doctor's every time I experienced tiredness or dizziness it would be smarter me to rent a room there than my actual apartment.
If I went to the doctor's and explained that I had a mysterious lump, they would send me for an x-ray, because hellloooooo America, your health care cost to damn much and your insurance doesn't cover it. And what would the X-ray show? Nothing. Because X-Rays are worth just as much as my last pint of rice at my local Chinese restaurant.
Oh and finally, stop scaring every American into having cancer.
Carry on now with your dumb research and news articles that have no meaning.
