Yeah I know that too. But all of the other side effects didn't make sense either. She was still running 4 miles or so a few times a week and she lost zero weight. I've seen many people with cancer and she just didn't fit the bill.

Ive known of someone that continued to milk the attention after treatments got rid of all signs of cancer.

Father in Law - POS told my wife's mother and grand parents that he has cancer. Wife's grand parents call his mother to tell her they will help any way they can. She says well umm that's news to me. That boy doesn't have cancer.

My wife watches those Real Housewives shows. On one episode this one bitch was yelling at this other bitch and said her husband was lying about having cancer, but he probably isn't, but he could be.
What she actually said was "A psychic we went to said that Brooks might not have cancer" and then she noted that she thought it was strange that he was quitting chemo to do some bullshite made up remedy from some quack doctor. She couldn't understand why a person would quit to do that b/c she has a friend who also is fighting cancer and was having trouble getting an appointment w/the doctor that the dude blew off to do his witch doctor remedy.
Then drama queen Shannon who has had it out for Meghan since before she was even on the show (she's insane and though Meg Edmonds was hitting on her husband that cheated on her) decided to drunkenly tell Vicki this during Brooks birthday dinner and neglected to tell Vicki that her BFF Tamera was the one that set up the visit with the psychic in the first place.
So Vicki, who has always been a queen B and is losing her mind over the death of her mother, took that as Meghan is going around telling people Brookes is a liar and he really isn't dying. To make matters worse, Vicki is friends with Jim Edmonds ex wife and likely is looking for reasons to hate on the young hot new wife.
Vicki then pulls shite like calling Meghan evil and a horrible person to her face and then straight up told Jim to get back to her when he has a new wife in 5 years. Somehow she thinks she is the one acting like an adult in all of this.

by Tiger Ryno you should have broken the news to them that you fear their cancer has returned…then ask for the previous doctors name so you could confer with him.
That's how I found out. Requested oncology records and they can't come up with an oncologist they've ever seen so they give me a GYN or previous PCP or GI doctors name

Pretty sure my ex-wife has faked many illnesses with cancer being one. She faked choking on food once. Who does that? She's also perfected how to fake cry on demand.
I think she's addicted to healthcare and being an attention whore.

I hear you. I've gained 25 pounds and wish I was running a mile a day. (and I should be)
If someone near you is claiming cancer, just be interested and ask questions about the specific cancer.
With a little research, I think it'd be hard to fake the symptoms of a particular cancer and it's accompanying treatment. (but I realize not impossible)
For those faking it... karma's a bitch, huh?

What evidence can you use to tell if someone has cancer?
Whatever it is, you should patent it.
Not everyone with cancer goes bald or looks sickly. There are tons of different cancers and not all of the treatments are strenuous.

I knew a girl who dated a buddy of mine. She faked breast and ovarian cancer so she could break up with and "get some space". As me and my buddy are in medical school, we just couldn't put everything together. Like she told him she was taking chemo drugs for a long time, but hadn't lost any hair. Once he figured out that was a lie, he figured out lots of other lies. I can go on
The lady is probably FOS.
But, not all chemotherapeutic agents cause hair loss and not all cancers cause weight loss.
Additionally, many patients cannot differentiate between a benign tumor and cancer and many physicians tend to do a poor job explaining the difference. For example, there is a huge population of women out there who have had had benign breast masses on mammogram who undergo excision and consider themselves "survivors."
Final point, not all people who have cancer will go to an oncologist. If there is no role for chemotherapy there is no reason for the oncologist. Cervical cancer depending on stage will be excised or patient will undergo hysterectomy and never have a visit with an oncologist.

I never met her but my brother moved into a house with this hot latina chick who's former roommate had skipped town after collecting about $10k from one of those gofundme type sites. For about 6 months she told everyone she had cancer and posted all these fake facebook posts about her illness to get attention and financial support. The hot roommate said everyday she got home from work there were multiple boxes from Amazon on the front porch. The lying chick was just buying shite online all day from the donations she received and when she finally got called out on it she disappeared.

If they are addicted to opiates or gambling, they will fake anything to get money. They had a lady in the LP years back that put out charity jars at a lot of convenience store for her daughter with cancer. The mom was, of course, faking everything to support her habit.

Yup, I knew a guy back in college who faked cancer for a couple of months. This guy was a clown. He shaved his eyebrows and head to make himself look sick. After a little while we started to catch on and it was just some big hoax to make people feel sorry for him.
