And he got candid about chemo side effects.
for three months. And in a live video this week, Hoppus, 49, shared more details about his diagnosis, the type of cancer he's dealing with, and how chemotherapy has been going., Hoppus shared that his cancer is “not bone-related, it's blood-related. My blood's trying to kill me.” Specifically, he's been diagnosed with diffuse large B-cell lymphoma stage 4-A. “It's entered enough parts of my body that I'm stage IV, which I think is the highest that it goes,” he said.
Hoppus also gave an update on how his chemotherapy has been going. “Let me tell you something that is real and it absolutely sucks: A side effect of the chemotherapy is you get something called ‘,’” he explained. “And for me, I forget things that I should have on-call, like names, song titles, anything. People will be talking to me and five minutes later I'll ask them a question, and they'll be like, ‘I just told you that five minutes ago.
At the time of the recording, Hoppus said he was preparing to go in for a PET scan, which would determine how well the chemotherapy was working. If it doesn't seem to be helping, a bone marrow transplant may be necessary. But regardless of the results, he will likely need another three rounds of chemo, he said.
