Last year, Forrest Sandifer of St. John's wasn't feeling well. He was having stomach issues and found no answers and no relief after multiple doctor visits.

After blood work and other tests, his physician started talking about what some fear most: cancer. Specifically, a pituitary gland tumour.

Further testing and an MRI were scheduled. But the 27-year-old had a gut feeling.

While waiting for his next appointments, he took two more tests at home, and the mystery was solved. There was no tumour at all; he was pregnant.

Well, pregnancy is a very reversible form of cancer
