I'm not fat....

it's a mailgnant tumour
BBC

Quote:

A man told by doctors he was obese plans to sue the hospital after finding out he actually had a malignant tumour growing in his stomach for nine years.

When the tumour was finally detected at the Royal Marsden Hospital in London and removed it weighed 55lb (25kg).

Trevor Smithson, 53, of Yateley, Hampshire, said he visited the Royal Berkshire Hospital, Reading, several times and even had three operations.

The hospital said it had received a complaint and was investigating.

Come on now, a 25Kg tumour is easy to miss........ :erm:

I remember when I was a student, this guy had a cyst removed from his belly button and it was the size of a melon!!!!!! They only knew it was there because his belly button smelt, Jesus how the hell could you miss that as the guy's belly button was sticking out for 17yrs!!!!!!

The size of that cancer and he lived! That should be the story! The bloody cancer was almost bigger than him. Let he lives, and lives for 7 years! Without treatment!
