“Get your appointments done,” the 38-year-old shared in a TikTok video.
In a Friday TikTok video, the "Jersey Shore" star revealed that she had been given a Stage 1 cervical cancer diagnosis.
Polizzi, 38, started the video by showing viewers a recent cone biopsy, a procedure used to check cervical cells for early-stage cancer, at a doctor's checkup.
She then took a seat in her car to inform her fans that she had Stage 1 cervical cancer, as confirmed by the results of her biopsy.
Polizzi remarked, "Obviously, it wasn't the news I was hoping for, but it wasn't the worst either because they caught it so early."

Polizzi shared that she struggled with abnormal Pap smears for years leading up to the diagnosis. She said she'll soon have a PET scan to detect if the cancer has spread to anywhere else in her body, will likely get a hysterectomy to remove her uterus and cervix.
"Instead of just putting it off because I didn’t want to go and it hurt and I was scared, no, I just went and did it … cancer’s in there, and it’s only Stage 1 and it’s curable."
Polizzi also urged followers not to skip their routine appointments.
"Get your appointments done, b******! I'm telling you," Polizzi added.
