Kyle had been taking athome colon cancer screening tests from his doctor since he was 40 years old. Unfortunately, the testing didn't detect anything because Kyle was diagnosed with stage 4 colon cancer just 5 years later. His first symptoms were severe constipation and blood in his stool. A colonoscopy led to his diagnosis, stage 4 colorectal cancer, learning it had spread to his liver.

In this cancer vlog, Kyle details his intense side effects from the chemotherapy that include nausea, fevers after hot showers, and high blood pressure.
