    Hello, my friends, :hi:

    I just completed my second chemotherapy session (started last Thursday and finished Friday), and I feel really tired and I don't have the appetite to eat. :huh:
     
    I have some second-degree burns, but the majority are first-degree burns or less on my neck and around my mouth. :unsure: I lost most of my facial hair and the back of my neck, and my face is so dark it's unbelievable, like my skin changed 80% darker. :mamba:
     
    But they are keeping me on a lot of medications for everything. I am taking some other drugs on top of my normal medications, which is good, but all day long I keep taking this, then that, another, as well as putting this cream, then washing and putting another one. :deadhorse:
    Anyway, I want to get my frustration out. I hope you understand I need to vent some steam. 
     
    I have 8 more radiotherapy sessions, and then I am done. I will complete my treatment by 23/7/2003, then I just have to do the follow-up with the professor who is overseeing my treatment. He told me he will do a CT scan for me after 3 to 4 weeks to see if everything went well. :read:
     
    Take care, my dear friends,
    Mohamad.

    Thank you, my dear friends, for your kindness and support. I really appreciate it and I look forward to coming to my second home when I can, Combatace, to read your posts; they are so comforting and uplifting.

    A 16 hour session , blimey Mohamad that is tough no wonder you feel so rough.

    Yes, indeed, it was, but it wasn't all chemotherapy; it was switching between chemotherapy and saline solution over 16 hours, from 5 PM to the following morning. I went to the bathroom more than 15 times—then I stopped counting! 😂 

    I feel about 75% recovered from chemotherapy, strength-wise. :blackeye:

    I look forward to the end of the treatment and, inshallah, the good news after the doctor's final visit in August.

    Take care, my dear friends,

    Mohamad

    Finished my first chemotherapy session; it took sixteen hours to complete. I have also completed two radiotherapy sessions out of thirty. I feel tired and have lost my taste, a dry mouth, and an upset stomach. But hopefully, I will complete treatment without infections.

    I may not be around for a while, but when I can, I will update you, my dear friends.

    Take care,

    Mohamad

    Last update before starting my treatment as I am going to have so many tests in the come two weeks before 12 June.

    My cancer turned out to be T3 N2 M0.

    (T3) which means stage 3 in the tonsils.

    (N2) it has spread to the lymph nodes more than five on both sides of the neck.

    (M0) indicates it has not spread to distant sites.

    I am in London and am scheduled to start both chemotherapy and radiation for six weeks, starting June 12. I am looking on the bright side and hopefully, inshallah, things will turn out well after treatment.

    Sincerely,

    Mohamad.

    Thank you again, my friends.

    A PET scan confirmed cancer in both tonsils and three lymph nodes total on both sides.

    Today, I completed an MRI to determine the cancer stage; hopefully, it is not stage 3 or 4, inshallah (God willing).

    I may go to the UK for treatment soon, if all goes well. Most likely, The Royal Marsden Private Care.

    Wish me the best and a speedy recovery. 🙏

    Sincerely,

    Mohamad.

    yes but lets get to the real questions: did you get enough ice cream after the tonsils and when do they activate the mutation making you invincible?

    Yes 😆 :biggrin:

    Waiting for the 19th of this month to get my treatment plan.  They took both my tonsils on the 22 April, and the report confirmed the right tonsil to have cancer, and rescheduled my PET scan and MRI for the next two weeks, one on the 8th and the other on the 13th, to see how far it's spread and which lymph more are affected by the cancer in the nuck in both sides.

    Aside from that, I am okay. :read:

    I sincerely appreciate your kindness and prayers; they are invaluable to me.

    Following a doctor's visit today, a full-body PET scan has been ordered to detect any further cancerous growths (Hopefully none will be found) Additionally, a head and neck MRI is scheduled to rule out brain cancer (I hope it will come negative).

    I will schedule these appointments tomorrow, aiming for availability within the next two weeks.

    Your continued prayers are deeply appreciated and provide significant emotional support.

    Sincerely,

    Mohamad.

    Thank you all for your kind words and prayers; it means a lot to me. Sadly, the results came back positive; I have cancer in the lymph nodes II / III on both sides of my neck. So, keep me in your thoughts and prayers 🙏.

    I may not be around for a while until I get all the tests (PET/CT scans) and, most likely, surgery to remove them. Then we will see what is next.
