Flairies and Larys · Andrea, in her own words
Watch: The early signs of laryngeal cancer
Andrea was misdiagnosed for over a year. First it was allergies. Then asthma. Then silent reflux.
This is her message to anyone being told it’s probably nothing, in her own words, so that nobody has to face it alone.
Patients advocating for patients
Flairies and Larys was built by patients, for patients. Everything here comes from people who have been through this themselves — our own experience, in our own words. Nobody should have to face it feeling alone, and that is the whole reason this place exists.
We always consult our own medical professionals when making decisions about our care, and we encourage you to do the same. What you find here is our opinion and our lived experience. It is not medical advice, and it is not a substitute for your own doctors and care team.
