Living With ACC & High Cortisol | The Bear’s Emotions, Mood Swings, and the “Go on Vacation” Advice

Описание: This is Becoming the Bear — Episode 2.

Today I talk about what it’s actually like living with stage 4 Adrenocortical Carcinoma (ACC):
the blood pressure issues, cortisol spikes, emotional swings, insurance fights, and what it feels like when doctors tell you to “go on vacation” instead of fight.

I’m not a medical professional. I’m just someone living this every day and sharing it raw and unfiltered — for my family, for myself, and for anyone else searching for answers.

If you’re dealing with unexplained high blood pressure, hormonal issues, or ACC, please advocate for yourself and get checked.

This channel is about honesty, fighting back, and becoming something stronger than fear.

Thanks for being here.
