But before the devastating diagnosis, an initial medical screening missed the tumour completely.<\/p>\n<p>&quot;If you have any doubt, go back again&quot;, the pop star told MedicineNet in 2021. By trusting her gut and seeking a second opinion her cancer was able to be diagnosed sooner.<\/p>\n<p>After eight months of chemotherapy and radiation, Kylie was declared cancer free in 2006. Opening up about her diagnosis, Kylie told People magazine: &quot;I remember having had my diagnosis, but the world didn&apos;t know. I was with my brother and my boyfriend at the time &#8211; we were all in a daze and went to a cafe.<\/p>\n<p><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter\" src=\"https:\/\/i2-prod.ok.co.uk\/incoming\/article30574450.ece\/ALTERNATES\/s615b\/0_The-Venetian-Resort-Las-Vegas-And-Kylie-Minogue-Announce-Voltaire-Coming-To-The-Iconic-Resort-This.jpg\"><\/p>\n<p>&quot;The server at the cafe was like, &apos;Hey, how are you today?&apos; We just kind of robotically said, &apos;Good, thanks.&apos; And in that moment, I just thought, &apos;You really don&apos;t know what anyone is going through.&apos;&quot;<\/p>\n<p>The pop icon added: &quot;I think after cancer or any other big, life-changing incident or illness, you have to adapt. Life is a series of challenges and you aim to have as many good times as possible.<\/p>\n<p>&quot;At this stage in my life I really feel like life is just made of moments, and the more moments that can be good, try to acknowledge that was a good moment.&quot;<\/p>\n<p><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter\" src=\"https:\/\/i2-prod.ok.co.uk\/incoming\/article14490038.ece\/ALTERNATES\/s615b\/960066_Kylie_Minogue_and_olivier_martinez_6dea427a86e581e88a5e818690bf64a0\"><\/p>\n<p>Breast Cancer UK states that this type of tumour is the &quot;most common cancer in the UK&quot;.
