What The Diagnosis Had Been Like
In 2017, Kotb talked about her diagnosis when she appeared on Megyn Kelly’s talk show on NBC. “As a confession, I really didn’t get a mammogram,” she explained. She went on, “I sort of found it accidentally when I went to the gynecologist, and it ended up being cancer. I worked a health show – I was actually telling people to get mammograms and I didn’t do it myself.”
They Found Out About It Early On
The good news is that it was still stage one. This meant that they discovered the condition early on. Kotb then signed up for an operation and got reconstruction procedures. She was given the all-clear a year later. The star thanks her surgeon for guiding her through all of it. Dr. Freya Schnabel gets credit for this.
