7m 32s
It’s common for cancer patients to have some tissue or lymph nodes surgically removed. But with these procedures, a whole cascade of problems can follow. You may not be able to ‘flush’ properly, leading to an accumulation of weight. During this Health Bite, Dr. Melissa Gallagher claims that she sees plenty of people like this in public, and for the most part, they’re completely unaware of the issue! Instead, they confuse it with obesity. To make this condition more understandable, she uses her famous ‘bathtub’ analogy. Since pretty much all of us know someone who has gone through cancer, this episode is a must-watch!
