"The belly has just come out of nowhere in a few weeks really," said Clinton, 49, at Kennedy News and Media. "Everywhere else, I had lost weight – I had just lost my buttocks, my legs were like sticks, my arms, my face was really skinny. But I had that big belly. It was scary. "

Clinton explained that she had raised other symptoms ranging up to a gym injury, irritable bowel syndrome and increased water intake. A previous medical appointment would also have missed his tumors. It was only when her friends convinced her to take a pregnancy test that she took her symptoms seriously.

"I decided to go to the local hospital on my way home for a quick check," she said, according to Kennedy News and Media. "They immediately put me on a scanner, then took me to a room and told me that there was a mass in my pelvic area." I was basically upset, because I was riding alone thinking that they were going to tell me that I had a little irritable bowel or something of the sort. "

Clinton revealed to the press that her sister had gone through a similar ordeal, but she did not know what signs to look for. She added that doctors had drained seven liters of fluid from her stomach during her first biopsy and seven more during a second biopsy. Finally, she had to undergo a complete hysterectomy.

"It's a little fuzzy for me now because I had these blinkers where I thought everything would be fine and I'll get there," she told Kennedy News and Media. "I thought … at the end of the day [if] everything is fine and I go out on the other side, they can throw whatever they want to me. "

Although Clinton showed no signs of cancer, she continues to undergo follow-up testing every six months to make sure the tumors have not returned. She calls for more awareness for the symptoms of non-cancerous tumors.

"I am very lucky," she told reporters. "You do not realize how lucky you are, do not you?" I am grateful to my friends for having the pregnancy test done that day, otherwise I may have continued to pass it or leave it. People do this because you do not dare to think it's serious. "
