Full House star Dave Coulier has revealed the brutal effects of treatments that caused him to lose 45lbs and have impacted his vocal cords. 

The actor, 66, addressed the changes in an Instagram video on Thursday. 

Coulier was first diagnosed with stage 3 non-Hodgkin lymphoma in late 2024. He was later diagnosed with tongue cancer. 

'I haven't posted in quite a while, and the last time I did, some of you said that I look differently and I sound differently, and I do,' he said in the clip.

'What you're seeing is the side effects of extensive radiation that I went through for carcinoma in my throat,' he explained. 

'I haven't been able to eat solid food in months, and so I've lost 45 pounds,' he continued.
