Dr Anisha Patel is a GP specializing in women’s health whose world was turned upside down with a diagnosis of stage three bowel cancer. She’s the author of the brilliant book Everything You’d Hoped You’d Never Need To Know About Bowel Cancer. I found this such a powerful book, with lessons for all of us whether or not we have cancer. This is a very inspiring conversation about women’s health and how we can all take better care if ourselves.
We talk about:
- Anisha’s cancer journey
- How she found the strength to write her book
- Vulnerability and the emotional aspects of cancer
- Openness about one’s health with children and family
- The long-term effects and life after cancer
- Surviving the survival
- Psychosocial impacts and support
- Anisha’s work with charities to set up a life after cancer clinic to provide specialized support
- Histamine intolerance and menopause
- Balancing hormone therapy and histamine intolerance
- Empowering women with knowledge
And lots more!
