 20-year-old lady who received a terminal cancer diagnosis described the early symptoms of her sickness.<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

Just before turning 21, Dominique McShain was given a devastating illness last year.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Dominique has been sharing her health story on TikTok since doctors gave her a one to five year prognosis.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Dominique promised to\u2019make a difference\u2019 and spread awareness about her cancer and its symptoms in her debut video, which she posted on the subject in May 2024.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Dominique discussed what made her aware of health problems in a different video.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

<\/p>\n\n\n\n

She discovered that she was \u201cfatigued all the time\u201d<\/strong> when she started her third year of university and that she \u201cwasn\u2019t taking anything in\u201d<\/strong> in her studies as a result.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u201cI\u2019d have a normal night\u2019s sleep but then sleep another five to six hours every single day,\u201d<\/strong> Dominique continued.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u201cThe other thing I had was blood in my stool. I kept switching between constipation and diarrhoea and normal [poo], but I always had blood in my stool. That was not fun.\u201d<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Dominique was concerned that doctors would discount her concerns if she went too soon, so she waited three to four weeks before being checked out.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

<\/p>\n\n\n\n

When her blood was finally drawn, the results showed that her liver blood was \u201cabnormally high,\u201d<\/strong> but her general blood was fine.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

When her doctors noted some changes after a second blood test, they advised Dominique to get an ultrasound. She had some\u2019massive lumps\u2019, the scan unfortunately showed.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

She also began to get stomach pains prior to the ultrasound, which caused her to lose her appetite significantly.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Dominique went on to say, \u201cI got real dizzy standing as well,\u201d<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

She kept feeling sick, so she eventually got a biopsy, which revealed that she had cancer.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Dominique has provided a tragic update in recent days and has continued to update her 194,000 TikTok followers on her development.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Dominique\u2019s illness has progressed and spread to her lungs, according to a message she made to her profile.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Oncologists have estimated that she has only one year to live because of this. Dominique described the heartbreaking news as \u201clike getting re-diagnosed again\u201d<\/strong> in a follow-up video.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
