James Van Der Beek, 47, Diagnosed with Colorectal Cancer


quote:

James Van Der Beek has colorectal cancer, PEOPLE can confirm.

"I have colorectal cancer. I’ve been privately dealing with this diagnosis and have been taking steps to resolve it, with the support of my incredible family,” the star, 47, tells PEOPLE exclusively.

“There’s reason for optimism, and I’m feeling good," Van Der Beek adds.

Colorectal cancer, per the American Cancer Society, starts in the colon or the rectum, which make up the large intestine in the digestive system.

Colonoscopies save lives. He’s only 47. Don’t wait until you’re 50 to get your first.

My gastro doc is recommending people start at 40 given our toxic, shitty diet and propensity to eat it 3 to 5 times a day.

Opening theme song to the Creek:
“I don’t want to wait for our lives to be over”

Alanis says, Isn’t it ironic?

You’ll probably being paying out of pocket. It was a fight with my insurance company to get one at 40 even though I had colon cancer run in my family

Had my first one at 32 due to shitty family history. Having another one in the summer. They are fine. Really nothing to be scared of. Best nap you’ll ever take

Got my first at 28 and every few years after because of family history. Multiple jobs/insurances and neither insurance company gave me hell.

There was a doctor on youtube talking about this and saying we are doing too many scopes. I can't remember his rationale, though.

This goes for the ladies out there, as well, who seem to get forgotten when it comes to these screenings. I know two that have died recently in their 40’s from colorectal cancer.
