[QUOTE=Nekrietns;29620253]I think you'll have a better chance and motive getting dope when you start having sleep and appetite problems, or if you really want it you could "exaggerate" the facts.[/QUOTE] I have brain cancer... I don't plan on exaggerating any facts [editline]4th May 2011[/editline] [url]http://www.foszor.com/blog/2011/05/random-questions/[/url]
Hey man, I know i'm late on this but I hope you make it out fine, and all the treatments go awesome and hopefully painless..I had a family member die of brain cancer but they where in stage 4 and died almost a few days after they found out.. Just keep thinking positive, almost like you would normally think (before you knew what it was, or before any of it even happened) it really does help with stuff. Think of your family, friends, kids, and wife and how they would be without you, fight to stay alive and see your kids grow up. Again, sorry if I'm late saying any of this but I thought i'd share a little atleast. Stay strong, and don't give up! Here are some links for discussion on Brain Cancer if you wanted to take a look: [url]http://www.cancerhopenetwork.org/?gclid=CPKvhuOf0KgCFQUDbAodkULehg[/url] [url]http://www.cancerforums.net/index.php?[/url] Also, I liked this quote from a post I saw and felt like you might like to read it... [quote]Since surviving Brain Cancer I've wanted to share my story. To tell others that they can do this, that even in the face of no hope there is hope. I know it's a lot of dark days with few bits of sunshine. But, you can part those dark clouds and let the sun shine through. It's possible. Just believe in yourself and have that unwavering faith that comes from within; from your soul. [/quote]
This thread makes me want to go for an MRI every six months If I do that I'll probably end up discovering 3 years later that I've had cancer in my pancreas the entire time or something
[QUOTE=Zeke129;29627769]This thread makes me want to go for an MRI every six months If I do that I'll probably end up discovering 3 years later that I've had cancer in my pancreas the entire time or something[/QUOTE] I've been thinking about requesting an MRI as well, after reading this thread several times.
Well they wouldn't just hand out unnecessary MRIs anyway
I met with the first set of oncology doctors yesterday, here's a quick update: [url]http://www.foszor.com/blog/2011/05/an-eye-opener/[/url]
Thanks for the update, hope it turns out well (of course I'm sure you hear this a lot). I don't know how to ask an inconspicuous question so i guess, what would you want us to ask, or not ask, exactly? Just so we know for when our loved ones are sick, to start some conversation too, obviously.
I have a question for you if you don't mind. Even though you're going through really rough times, would you consider this a blessing in disguise?
[QUOTE=Smug Bastard;29683256]I have a question for you if you don't mind. Even though you're going through really rough times, would you consider this a blessing in disguise?[/QUOTE] Its hard to admit it, but yes. In fact, I ended my post on that exact note. Sometimes really bad things have to happen to use to help us see the nice things in life.
[QUOTE=Zeke129;29627769]This thread makes me want to go for an MRI every six months If I do that I'll probably end up discovering 3 years later that I've had cancer in my pancreas the entire time or something[/QUOTE] Sometimes small companies go around on "health mobiles" or whatever and offer MRIs for a fairly hefty price. the thing is you're almost guaranteed to find something, and even if it's not important or threatening it's going to bother you, and a lot of the time people end up spending money on having it fixed anyway. not worth it IMO. if I start getting tunnel vision i'll go to the doctor.

[QUOTE=Murkat;29734390]Heart needs brain to run = brain more important[/QUOTE] brain needs heart to run, most organs are of equivalent importance
[QUOTE=SubbyV-2;29734696]brain needs heart to run, most organs are of equivalent importance[/QUOTE] Actually the brain needs blood to run, whereas the function of the heart is directly connected to the brain's. If your heart stops then your brain still works for a short while, while if the brain stops working then the heart does too. But yeah I agree, all organs are important in their own way.
Yeah but if your heart stops then you're pretty much gonna lose consciousness quite instantly
The organ I concider most important is on the outside of my body.

You can be brain dead and still have a pulse.
Good luck man, I know you can pull through this. You have a really amazing attitude towards it, keep at it! My thoughts are with you.
[QUOTE=Maucer;29738286]Actually... heart can beat without the brain. Heart produces itself the nerve impulses that make it beat. You can be brain dead and still have a pulse.[/QUOTE] You'd still be dead, not technically but still.
I truly hope you'll get better.
Fucking hell mate, that's terrible. Having said that though, your story is extremely inspirtational. I wish you and your family all the best, as i'm sure the love and support of those closest to you is how you're going to overcome this emotionally.
I haven't stayed updated with this. But has the OP gone through with the surgery? If not, I am sure everything will be fine!
[QUOTE=CommanderPT;29743317]I haven't stayed updated with this. But has the OP gone through with the surgery? If not, I am sure everything will be fine![/QUOTE] Yes he has, they've removed something. You should read his blog to know what really happened so far.

I feel bad I haven't been reading these, I can't believe I missed it. All the best for you buddy.
[QUOTE=pipodebeuker;29737967]The organ I concider most important is on the outside of my body.[/QUOTE] Yeah the skin IS pretty important
No the (fore)skin is the least important part of the organ I was talking about.
