Coulier is using his platform to raise awareness about the importance of early detection
Dave Coulier, best known for his role as Joey Gladstone on the hit sitcom ‘Full House’, has revealed that he was diagnosed with prostate cancer in September 2022. In a candid interview with People magazine, Coulier shared his story to help others and raise awareness about the importance of early detection.
Coulier first noticed something was wrong when he began experiencing urinary problems. He went to the doctor and was diagnosed with an enlarged prostate. A biopsy confirmed the presence of cancerous cells.
Coulier underwent surgery to remove the cancerous tissue and is now cancer-free. He is grateful for the support of his family and friends during this difficult time.
Coulier is using his platform to raise awareness about prostate cancer and encourage men to get regular checkups. He is also working with the Prostate Cancer Foundation to help fund research and support programs for men with prostate cancer.
Prostate cancer is the most common cancer among men in the United States, with over 268,000 new cases diagnosed each year. The American Cancer Society recommends that men over the age of 50 talk to their doctor about prostate cancer screening.
Coulier’s story is a reminder that anyone can get cancer, even those who are healthy and active. It is important to be aware of the signs and symptoms of cancer and to get regular checkups.
