Coulier said his type of lymphoma was “very aggressive” and “happened very quickly.”
“The onset of this growing lymphoma in my groin area was very quick. So I said, ‘Ah, something’s not right. I have a golf ball down here,'” the comedian said. “And they said, ‘We wish we had better news for you, but you have B-cell lymphoma, we need to get you into chemotherapy right away.'”
Coulier said the curability rate of his cancer was “90 plus percent,” adding, “So it’s very treatable.”
Meanwhile, the actor, who is married to Melissa Bring, is leaning on his loved ones for support while reflecting on his “incredible life.”
“I’ve had the most amazing people in my life,” he said. ” This has been an extraordinary journey, and I’m OK if this is the end of the journey.”
Coulier had shared his cancer diagnosis with his fellow Full House alumni in a group chat before going public with the news.
“My brother from day 1,” John Stamos, who played Uncle Jesse on the show, wrote on Instagram alongside a photo carousel of the two over the years. “Love you @dcoulier and I’ll be by your side through it all.”
