Iron Maiden's Bruce Dickinson Speaks Out About Cancer Fight

08/18/2015
. (Classic Rock) Iron Maiden frontman Bruce Dickinson has spoken exclusively to Metal Hammer about his battle with cancer. His original diagnosis in February indicated a single growth on his tongue, but he later revealed he also had two tumours removed from his neck. He was given the all-clear in May.

Dickinson tells Metal Hammer: "You end up with the metabolism of a hummingbird during this treatment because you're being cooked from the inside out.

"But your body's also trying to heal itself rapidly, and it goes into overdrive. I think that's one reason why you lose weight. It's simply because your system is banging away and then eventually it all dropped back down to normal. It's fascinating. Basically, I am my own science project." Read more here.
