Get some of this stuff. It eliminated all of my dad's tumor's without chemo. He was too sick to do chemo for a while, and just took this stuff, and all his tumors were gone. The oncologists couldn't believe it, and recommended another round of chemo, but it backfired by weakening his immune system and the tumors came back.

The Essiac might taste gross, but it might just cure you.

Hey brother,
good to hear you had a good post op recovery! My wife still has her J port (hers is in her collarbone, getting it out in a month after 1.5 years). The PICC is your friend, did they put a grenade on your tube? I dressed and drained my wife's grenade for a month after surgery. How were your sentinel nodes?
With chemo, I can give you some recommendations if you are going that route: layer antiemetics with the cousin...
stock up zofram (you can try the others but they might not work well). If you combine zofram and some really good cousin you can keep the peaks under control.
Just know you have friends out here thinking about you!

Update time...The first round of chemo went pretty well all things considered. Had a lot of nausea, was dog-assed tired most of the time. Took me about 6 days to get over it, but I felt like a new man after that. The whole last week I've felt really good. Sitting here getting chemo treatment right now. Just switched to the 5-FU bags now. Got wise after the first round and brought a laptop to occupy my time. At least I can keep up on the CYBI podcasts this way. The best part of all of this is that my spirits are way up. Whenever I need a boost, I just check back to this thread to read all the wonderful and supportive things everyone has to say. Thank you all once again. :drink :drink
