Hair

 

So I'm happy my hair is growing longer.
I've been feeling better now that I've been off chemo for a month and off radiation for a week and a half. I love having more energy.
I have an appointment to see what we're going to do next on the 30th. Wish me luck.
I've been trying to fit in stuff i can do now that i have the energy and vigor for it. It's quite nice not being sick from the medicine. I'm doing things i love to do.
I am sort of dreading going back on medicine but if it's saving my life then it's worth it.

Pain

Image
think this is one of my favorite pictures of myself. My hair is growing back nicely, and I'm relaxing on the lazy boy. Overall, today was a relaxing day. I had an interview today for the KRAS kickers, and that went pretty well. Other than that, I didn't do too much. Today was a blissful day. I only had one setback. This evening, I had pain in my ribs about a 4/10, that was making me somewhat annoyed. I couldn't move because it would agitate it I have tumors in my chest wall that press on the nerves, ligaments, muscles and bones.I take medicine for this, and normally it works. If I didn't have my medicine I would probably be bedridden from the pain. I took my medicine but the pain was still present. I probably need an increase because this has been happening more often. However, despite this, my spirit was somehow calm in the midst of the storm. I felt at peace even though my body was in pain. I believe Jesus helped me get through the pain of my cancer today....

A lot on my mind

Image
  A lot has been on my mind lately. I don't even know where to begin I am ambivalent about the fact i am off chemo now. I like that I am not sick and that I can do more things, bit the idea that the tumors are growing scares the crap out of me. Still upset about the rent increase. It's like they think I'm made out of money. 🤦 Feels like a slap in the face. I'm also terrified of something happening with my back and pelvis. My Dr said they are so fragile they are like an 80 year old's. The tumors in the back and pelvis made the bones weak. I already broke a vertebrae in my spine, which they fixed with surgery, and I have hairline fracture on my pelvis. We are just hoping my body heals the fracture naturally. I've been taking calcium to prevent fractures. kitty.lovie728 A lot has been on my mind lately. I don't even know where to begin I am ambivalent about the fact i am off chemo now.

COVID

Image
I guess i have COVID It's weird because i don't feel sick. However i felt like death a few days ago. I had muscle aches, a cough, stuffy nose, shortness of breath,headache, fatigue, fever, sore throat, and general malaise. Weird thing is, half the symptoms are not different from my everyday cancer life, such as the fatigue, pain, shortness of breath, and malaise, That's why I didn't go to the Dr right away. I just thought it was everyday life. I went to my uncle's birthday party, where i really exerted myself, so i thought my cancer was acting up because of that. Looking back, i had a clinical trial where i felt WORSE than this. I felt so sick i couldn't move. Literally couldn't move. The muscle aches were unbearable. Imagine taking medicine that makes you feel worse than COVID. No fun at all It's weird how cancer symptoms are almost identical to a sickness that people complain about. I live through this everyday and go through it with a smile...
