Gluttony

It was inevitable. It was bound to happen. My appetite comes back with a vengeance. So today I thoroughly satisfied myself and literally my stomach feels like it's about to burst. I have been eating all day virtually nonstop. I am trying to eat the healthier stuff and I don't think I'm doing too badly. Unfortunately, too much of a good thing is still too much of anything. I literally gained another 7 pounds the past week and a half. Oh, well. I needed to put on weight. Just didn't think I'd bounce back so fast. Kinda ironic considering I have literally been praying to get to this point. Oh, well, we do get our prayers answered. Never doubt the Lord on that score.

Still having sinus pain. The antibiotic is not working. Will need to notify the doctor so they could address the issue before it escalates. My left arm edema also decided to manifest itself further. The current heat wave has made matters worse. Really need to get lymphedema treatments but I simply cannot afford to do so financially at this point. As it is, we're getting bombarded will all the medical bills. My last PET scan is a $500 copay. I haven't even gotten the bills from the other scans. That ought to be fun. Ha! Ha! Joke's on me. As always.

  1. I'm a stage 3 colorectal cancer patient currently in chemo and I came across your blog randomly. I'm glad to read that your appetite is returning, your strength is coming back, and your brain scan was negative. Stay strong.
