본문
Married At First Sight expert Mel Schilling has revealed she 'ignored the signs' of her colon cancer and is already back at work weeks after undergoing surgery.
The TV star, 52, who appears on the British and Australian versions of the show, revealed she had colon cancer in an Instagram post on December 19.
Speaking on Tuesday's This Morning about her diagnosis, she said: 'I was ignoring the signs for such a long time, my energy had dropped and slimy liquid Erfahrung I was doubled over and shouting in pain.
'I was doing a lot of international travel so I blamed it on the travel. In my mind I had a busy year and I thought I could rest in December.'
Mel eventually went to a GP in Australia who thought she had constipation but she went to a specialist after returning to the UK after being unable to keep water down.

The specialist pinpointed she had colon cancer right away and, in helping to keep her spirits up, Mel has named her tumor 'Terry'.
The star added she is lucky she caught the tumour early but noted she could never feel it.
She said: 'It's a good news story. It has been tough but it was early intervention. It could have been different had I waited a month later.'
When she made the announcement, Mel posted a photo of herself hugging her husband Gareth Brisbane, 51, and their daughter Madison, eight, alongside the caption: '"You have cancer." Three little words that everyone dreads but no one ever expects to hear.
'Last Thursday my consultant told me those three words.'
Mel said she was diagnosed just one month after she began to feel pain in her stomach while filming MAFS Australia's upcoming eleventh season.
'About a month ago, when I was filming in Australia, I developed severe stomach cramps on set. I put it down to all the travel I'd been doing and the upset it caused to my system,' she explained.
'I saw my GP in Sydney and he put it down to constipation, gave me some laxatives and sent me on my way.'
