I still don't know if I'll require another month of treatment to make up for some issues I had earlier on
But as of today it's tentatively my last treatment. I'll be happy when this nightmare is finally over --- Not removing this until Mega Man 64 is released on the Wii Virtual Console. Started on: 12/1/2009 https://imgur.com/mPvcy ... Copied to Clipboard!

Thanks for the support everyone.
As it stands, I'll go in for chemo today (likely puke a few times in the chair) and then go home and be incredibly tired/run-down for a few days. By Sunday I'll start feeling better, and by Monday or Tuesday I'll feel like my normal self again @Future_Trunks posted... Nice dawg! what was it again? It's the chemo regimen ABVD for Hodgkins Lymphoma. I'm very lucky in that it's a very curable cancer (85% my oncologist keeps telling me) and so far according to my latest PET scan back in June I've responded quite well to it (with almost no cancer present, save for one tiny barely active lymph node) --- Not removing this until Mega Man 64 is released on the Wii Virtual Console.

I've got a lot of stress off of me in the past few days. The government has officially paid for 100% of everything for my healthcare. They're even sending me money back for stuff I already paid.
America not quite as bad as advertised, I guess. I started off uninsured. So after ignoring months of phone calls and letters, feels good to be completely in the clear on $$$ --- This is my signature. ... Copied to Clipboard!

That's definitely great to hear It's good that you can just focus on getting these treatments done and getting healthy again And that you don't have to worry about the $$$ --- Not removing this until Mega Man 64 is released on the Wii Virtual Console.

I feel pretty good most of the time these days. I started off half-dead, stage 4 lymphoma. Wasn't gonna live much longer. And these days I feel mostly healthy on my good days(granted, I'm hyped up on steroids and oxycodone 75% of the time).
I'm pretty thankful to have got the kind of help I did. --- This is my signature. ... Copied to Clipboard!

And these days I feel mostly healthy on my good days(granted, I'm hyped up on steroids and oxycodone 75% of the time). It's amazing isn't it? I was thinking back to how horrible I felt from December-April as I (apparently) developed the Lymphoma and got worse as time went on. I developed a dependency on Nyquil/Dayquil (I thought it'd relieve my coughing/nausea) and stuff like tylenol and Aleve just to deal with the pain and inflammation. Probably did a number on my liver in hindsight. Sounds grim, but if I didn't seek treatment I'd likely be dead by now. Now on my off-weeks I feel great. Go on hikes, get out when I can. It's nice. Glad to hear you're in the same boat and that you're getting your stuff managed well --- Not removing this until Mega Man 64 is released on the Wii Virtual Console.

I knew you'd beat this, awesome news, Doom.
Cancer is an asshole. Last week was my first post-surgery CAT scan and blood tests. Everything came back clean, but was still nerve wracking waiting for results. If anything shows up, it's probably another surgery, then chemo. Chemo scares the shit out of me, so I'm hoping I'm in the 80-85% that doesn't have any recurrences. Good luck, Steve Nick. Coming back from that is bad ass. Glad you got help with the bills, the cost is almost as scary as the condition. I know firsthand. Burned through my savings paying everyone. Another surgery might bankrupt me. And that was with insurance. ... Copied to Clipboard!
