Dave Coulier is battling tongue cancer, months after announcing he beat lymphoma.
The “Full House” alum shared his latest diagnosis on the “Today” show Tuesday, calling the news a “shock to the system.”
The actor, 66, clarified, “It’s totally unrelated to my non-Hodgkin’s lymphoma. This is a new cancer. I said, ‘Are you kidding me?’”
He noted that doctors “said it could stem from having an HPV virus up to 30 years ago,” which may have “activated and turned into a carcinoma.”
Coulier called his cancer “very treatable” with a “90 percent curability rate.”
The “Fuller House” alum told viewers, “The doctor said the prognosis is good, but we’re going to start radiation immediately.”
The treatment, so far, has been “a whole different animal” than the chemotherapy he underwent last year.
“It doesn’t feel as aggressive, but there are still side effects,” Coulier said.
He shared his stage 3 lymphoma diagnosis on the “Today” show in November 2024 — and was declared cancer-free earlier this year.
