I'm on a regimen called ABVD for Hodgkins Lymphoma
The A-drug caused some damage to my heart after a few treatments so we had to pull it So for two treatments I had just BVD Eventually we found another chemical that they could give me to shield my heart from the harmful effects of this A-drug. So I've been getting that for months now. My oncologist was wondering if I would require an additional month of treatment to make up for my compromised treatments. She put me in touch with a clinic called Princess Margarets. One of the best cancer clinics and research centers in the world. I would talk to several specialists and they'd look at my case and let me know if I would need additional treatments or not. They called and wanted me to do a teleconference with them Unfortunately they booked for the day after my chemo. I told them this and mentioned that I wouldn't be able to do it as I'd be sick. They said okay and they'd reschedule That was two months ago. I've heard nothing from them since I've told my oncologist and she said she'd reach out to them. I've tried calling and leaving messages No one's responded So now I'm going into treatment in a few days and I have no fucking clue if I'm done or not. I likely will have no idea for another few weeks I'm fucking pissed off. I'm ready to be done. I've had six months of this shit, I've lost my hair, I've been sick, I've been unable to work or go to the gym. I want to start making plans I can't make plans and start getting back to my life if I'm trapped in this freaking limbo So beyond annoyed and stressed out right now /rant --- Not removing this until Mega Man 64 is released on the Wii Virtual Console.

That sounds really fucking annoying. Feeling pretty good all things considered. Apart from some anticipatory nausea before treatments and some nausea and tiredness after treatment for a few days I feel great My issues at this point are mostly mental Isolation is starting to get at me tbh. I have very supportive and wonderful friends and family but they work and shit. I'm at home, unable to work or go to the gym, and have to avoid or be extremely careful in public spaces. --- Not removing this until Mega Man 64 is released on the Wii Virtual Console.

If youre trying to get the cancer out of your life why do you still post on CE dude Because to get rid of the cancer you have to inject yourself with something so horrible that it kills the cancer while killing you--but doesn't kill you all the way, just enough to make all the cancer die while leaving you with the barest scraps of a miserable life. --- It says right here in Matthew 16:4 "Jesus doth not need a giant Mecha." https://imgur.com/dQgC4kv ...

Dealing with medical personnel is the worst. I swear they don't know if they're coming or going--it's a good thing the admin people aren't in charge of the actual treatment decisions. I hope they figure out your situation soon and that you get the news you need to get on with your life.
