Sharon Stone's 8 biggest roles: 'Basic Instinct' and beyond
These are Sharon Stone’s eight biggest roles in her acting career.
Sharon Stone cautioned women to always "get a second opinion" from doctors and medical professionals after she received a misdiagnosis that ultimately was a "large fibroid tumor."
The "Basic Instinct" actress took to her Instagram Tuesday to let her fans know what she went through, revealing that she "just had another misdiagnosis and incorrect procedure." She also added that she had to receive a "double epidural" to treat the pain.
The actress said that as the pain got worse, she decided to seek a second opinion from a different doctor who let her know that she had "a large fibroid tumor that must come out."

"It is no small thing, physically nor emotionally, yet we are made to feel it is something to bear alone and secretly with some kind of sense of failure. Instead of receiving the much-needed compassion and empathy and healing which we so need. Female health and wellness left to the care of the male ideology has become lax at best, ignorant in fact, and violently oppressive in effort."
