'Universal Soldier' \u200b\u200band 'The Expendables' star Dolph Lundgren opens up about his long battle with cancer for the first time. The 65-year-old Swedish actor admitted that eight years ago, in 2015, doctors found a tumor in his kidney, which turned out to be cancerous.. " But then they did a biopsy, and it turned out to be cancerous.. Then I did a scan every six months, then every year, then everything was fine for five years,"

Despite a successful operation, the cancer returned in 2020, but this time the doctors found six tumors in the actor's kidneys and liver.. However, the growths were too large to be surgically removed again, so Lundgren was forced to undergo chemotherapy.. " So he tried to satisfy his hunger. It was a food fight so he kept losing weight," Crocdal.

At the beginning of the disease, doctors reported unflattering rogues - he had only two or three years to live. " So I asked him, \? " I thought it was for sure. You look at your life and think " I lived like five lives in one.

So I didn't feel sad," Despite everything, the actor did not want to give up, so he continued to fight the disease and began to look for the best specialist.. Thanks to the new therapy, tumors have become smaller by 20-30% in a few months, and by 90% in a year in general. Therefore, in 2022, the doctors were able to successfully operate on the actor and now he feels much better.. Now Lundgren continues to actively act in films and enjoy life with his 26-year-old lover, whom they married in 2020..
