Hi guys! It's me again with my weekly update. So as I mentioned earlier I am off my second round of treatment and now I am getting off steroids. Well I have to say it is not that easy. I am weaker than I was during the treatment, barely making myself to walk every day, but I am sure it is going to p...

My last radoi week update. 6th week of radiation. I am a little beat up physically, but still much better than docs and nurses were thinking I would be. Climbing stairs is fun. I need to take a brake every few steps. Other than that I am fine. Damn steroids. 3 days left and after that 4 week of rest...

Hi guys You'll be laughing but I have nothing to report again. My recovery is going OK. I am getting a little weaker every week, but I am still way ahead of what docs and nurses would expect from me. My face is getting rounder as usual with the uniboob but other that that I am OK; strangely no weigh...

Wow that looks great! Now I want one of these to support myself :wink: ! And here is my weekly report. Which is surprisingly not much entertaining as usual. I passed two weeks. Four of them left to go. Everyone is telling me that by week three I should be tired and low energy, but the fact is that i...

Thank you guys for your great support! Finally it is a time for my weekly report. Actually not much to report. First week passed, I feel great! So far no side effects from chemo or radio. I am training (mildly) every day to keep my body ready for later weeks. I am a little intimidated by what people...

Hi guys! Sorry for the long silence - wasn't much to reply. The docs are waiting for my head to heal up after the surgery so they can continue helping me killing the damn thing. I had the last pre treatment appointment with an oncologist today. He said that not much changed. They found another tiny ...
