    Another MRI is clear!

    Had my MRI done last Wednesday, and this Wednesday my radiologist and oncologist both confirmed that there was no visual signs of any tumor regrowth, to go along with my continuing to not have any of the symptoms I was experiencing prior to my July surgery last year! Still going well! I'll be getting a new shipment of Temodar pills this Friday, and will starting the fourth five day course

    Shingles, yay!

    So apparently the Chicken Pox virus that has been idle in my body ever since my early childhood caught sight of all the cancer therapy I've been doing and went "would be a shame if someone took advantage of a slight downturn in your immune system," and then I break out in Shingles on the right side of my head at age 37. They usually only START worrying about that at age 50+! What a blessed start

    AM CYBORG NAO

    Nah it's actually not as cool as that. I'm STILL alive, last MRI was clear, still no tumor related symptoms, and I've begun my second round of chemo wherein I take double or triple doses for 5 days in a row once a month for six months. The "LOLCYBORG" bit comes from a little device called Optune, which generates a Tumor Treating Field through basically all of my brain as long as it's attached and

    HAHA NO BIG DEAL

    Holy shit I got back from my post surgery checkup appointment with the surgeon.

    Surgeon: "You were pretty out of it."
    Me: "Yeah I don't remember much two days before the surgery, I figure I must've been on some good medications at the time."
    Surgeon: "Uh no, actually you were on death's door and your brain just stopped working basically."
    Me: "...OH."

Root canal · 10:13pm Jul 8th, 2023

My original plan was to go to a dental office nearby that my local dental office referred me too for a root canal that would be covered by my Medi-Cal by some miracle. However, at the time I made it there the disorienting and painful effects of the cavity that I theorize was causing the entire issue were at the highest and I absolutely could not bring myself to wait the two extra weeks to get for the insurance to kick in after the inspection, so I paid 400 bucks for them to do most of the procedure right then. I don't really feel GOOD about dropping that much of the small amount of money I have left in the bank, but it's ALREADY fixed a lot of issues, I'm hoping the issues that remain decrease day by day until I'm back to normal, and as far as ROOT CANALS go that's still the lowest price I've ever paid for one so overall I can't really complain right about now.

I still don't feel that good and periodically have some bad side effects kicking in, but so long as they don't go full bore again, and decrease bit by bit, I should be getting near the end of this whole thing. We'll see how the next few days go. I miss you all.
