Hank Green announces cancer is in remission three months after diagnosis YouTube: vlogbrothersIconic Vlog Brother and NYT bestselling author Hank Green has announced his cancer is now in remission three months after his shock Hodgkin\u2019s Lymphoma diagnosis. Almost three months ago to the day, on May 19, veteran internet personality Hank Green revealed his cancer diagnosis in a YouTube video. At the time, he explained how issues with enlarged lymph nodes soon led to a routine checkup. It was from a scan during said checkup that his Hodgkin\u2019s Lymphoma was made clear. Now, three months on from this shocking revelation, Green is able to ring the bell. In a follow-up TikTok on August 21, the content creator shared the amazing news with fans, revealing his cancer is now in remission. \u201cI had my first post-treatment follow-up with my oncologist today,\u201d Green said. \u201cAs of today, I am officially in complete remission. Which means I kinda don\u2019t have cancer anymore.\u201d Over the three-month window, Green was subject to a multi-pronged treatment plan to fight the cancerous cells in his system. This plan is \u201cbased on a lot of research, a lot of evidence, a lot of hard work, and a lot of people going through similar things,\u201d he outlined. \u201cWith mine, it was chemotherapy then radiation, which I finished about a week ago.\u201d And now, it\u2019s clear the hard work and challenging months paid off, as Green is entirely rid of his cancer. As for the next steps, as with any similar diagnosis, there\u2019s always a chance of relapse, though with Green\u2019s particular case of Hodgkin\u2019s Lymphoma, he claimed there\u2019s a \u201cpretty low risk\u201d in his situation. \u201cWe have another scan in three months to follow up, then we keep a really close eye on it.\u201d Though if the cancer should return, Green is more than up to the task of fighting it again, saying with a smile \u201cWe\u2019ll take that on too!\u201d For now, given the extent of his treatment, Green is still recovering for the immediate future, fighting against symptoms of \u201cpain, fatigue, anxiety\u201d and a \u201cfew other unpleasant\u201d additions to the list as well. But obviously, having come out the other side, the social media star is over the moon with the \u201cvery good\u201d news.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
