Coulier, known for portraying beloved character Joey Gladstone (aka “Uncle Joey”), learned of the diagnosis in October after struggling with an upper respiratory infection.

The 65-year-old comedian, who reprised his role in “Fuller House,” airing on Netflix from 2016-2020, told People Magazine how he found out about the shocking diagnosis.

Swelling of lymph nodes sparked concern and doctors ordered PET and CT scans, which revealed the cancer. Coulier said he has the rare B cell lymphoma type—a “very aggressive” form.

“I went from, ‘I got a little bit of a head cold’ to ‘I have cancer,’ and it was pretty overwhelming,” he told People. “This has been a really fast roller coaster ride of a journey.

One bright side of the ordeal has been Coulier’s bone marrow test, which was negative. He said this raises his chances of being cured from “something low to 90% range.”

This is giving him hope during a difficult time. Coulier also spoke candidly with People about how he reacted to finding out—and why he’s remarkably calm.

“When I first got the news, I was stunned, of course, because I didn’t expect it, and then reality settled in and I found myself remarkably calm with whatever the outcome was going to be,” he told the outlet. “I don’t know how to explain it, but there was an inner calm about all of it.”

Coulier, who has lost a his mother, sister, and niece to cancer—and has a sister currently going through cancer with him—said this history is likely part of the peace he feels.

“They really instilled that in me and inspired me in a way because they were magnificent going through what they went through, and I just thought, ‘I’m OK with this, too,’” he said. “I’ve had an incredible life on a journey with incredible people around me and I’m OK. It does change perspective for sure.”
