00:00Dolph Lundgren, 67, says he's back to normal after tough cancer battle.

00:05It feels good.

00:07Dolph Lundgren, 67, has shared a health update after years battling kidney cancer,

00:12appearing cancer-free at the BAFTA TV Tea Party in Los Angeles on September 13th.

00:18NED, they call it.

00:19No evidence of disease, Lundgren shared, reflecting on his five-year cancer battle.

00:24He's adjusted his lifestyle, saying,

00:26I don't stay out as late, I don't work out as hard, but I do hit the gym.

00:30I'm just a little kinder to myself physically.

00:33His health scare has given him a new perspective on life.

00:36Lundgren is now more grateful for everything he has and focuses on cherishing moments with loved ones,

00:42such as his wife, Emma, and daughters, Ida and Greta.

00:45This eye-opening experience, he admits, might have prevented him from taking reckless risks.

00:50As OK previously reported, Lundgren first revealed his diagnosis in 2015 after a tumor was removed from his kidney.

00:58A biopsy confirmed it was cancerous, and he had regular scans, which remained clear for five years.

01:05In 2020, doctors found six new tumors in his kidneys and liver, ruling out surgery and starting Lundgren on chemotherapy.

01:12The grueling treatments left him sore and unable to eat, leading to rapid weight loss.

01:17Facing a bleak prognosis, doctors urged him to prioritize family time.

01:23Despite being told he had two to three years, Lundgren remained defiant, reflecting on his frickin' great life.

01:29Instead of accepting the timeline, Lundgren got a second opinion from Dr. Alexandra Dracocki, discovering a tumor mutation.

01:36This breakthrough allowed testing new treatments, shrinking tumors significantly.

01:41By 2022, they had reduced 90% and were removed.
