Micb 5th Gear April 8, 2019 Share April 8, 2019 @lala81, hi we may not know each other or met before. Just like to ask you be strong and stay positive. You are in the profession, so know what to expect along the chemo journey. Still, the mental and emotional drain are there. Wish you a speedy recovery! Fight and do not give up, you are still young with a young family too. ↡ Advertisement 11 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lala81 Hypersonic April 8, 2019 Author Share April 8, 2019 oh no! take care doc! so sorry. this is a shocking bad surprise. Hope you, wife and parents are coping well. u dont have to answer but did you notice any other symptoms before discovering the lump? I noted it was swollen last year for a few days while but thought it went back to normal so ignored it. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Eug1388 6th Gear April 8, 2019 Share April 8, 2019 Bro Lala, it is important that you continue to take small meals regularly (maybe from the usual 3 per day to breaking them into small portions eaten 5 times per day) to ensure that you do not lose too much weight. You need to eat and have the energy to keep you going. If possible, aim for organic food or vegetables that do not feed these cells. Many have recovered from such enduring times. I have closed ones who also went through similar journey and i do feel for you and your family too. I wish u all the best. Stay strong. It is your will power and determination that will also outlast all these treatments. 5 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Get well soon we need runners back on their feet .... or rather Run for your Life (actually my previous Ortho/ Sports Doc at CGH, Ben Tan wrote that book many years back)Ha. Walking my dog is already bonus already. Definitely no energy to exert.Haha my dog also bit confused why I don't force it to run. That's why I ran for several days before starting chemo. But these two weeks are taper before starting next cycle. Will walk more if I feel up to it. Need to keep some busyness in life. Esp from someone who hasn't taken such a long break from Working since. Cooking dinner last night was a good distraction for me. Otherwise, feel like invalid. 1 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Steelblue66 3rd Gear April 8, 2019 Share April 8, 2019 Hi Lala81 - firstly, I think it's very unselfish and noble of you to share your experience in this difficult time For all you know, you could end up helping to save someone's life Definitely a shocker but at least the prognosis is good I had a younger former colleague diagnosed with this more than 10 years ago, and he remains well to this day We may not have met but like the other medical colleagues here, please feel free to pm me if you need any assistance / advice (not an oncologist, but sometimes get called upon for rashes etc) 11 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Kezg1 5th Gear April 8, 2019 Share April 8, 2019 (edited) Take care and be strong, hope you will get well soon. Hear say that walking early in the morning, just before sun rise within the forest area (for the dew) is good. Example places like Botanic garden or Bukit Timah nature reserve.
