Shannen Doherty speaks out on her battle with stage 4 breast cancer: 'I've got a lot of life in me'
Shannen Doherty gave an update on her battle with stage 4 breast cancer and her outlook on life in a new interview with Elle.
The 49-year-old actress, who publicly revealed that her breast cancer had returned in an interview with "Good Morning America" in February 2020, spoke to the publication about her current treatment, coping with the illness amid the pandemic and revealing the latest update to her closest friends.
Doherty said she went to get a PET scan in early 2019 due to extreme back pain she was experiencing after exercising. Her oncologist, Dr. Lawrence Piro, then told her the breast cancer had returned and spread to her spine.
