Third Chemo Session!

Update posted by Neil Michael Namoro

hi there!

so yeah, yesterday was my third chemotherapy session! we're halfway there through my treatment plan, huzzah! (well, hopefully halfway there. we'll find out soon if i need 6 or 8 sessions in this treatment, but i am hoping to just need 6.)

yesterday was very much straightforward, not that much hassle in getting and during the treatment. just played a lot of StardewValley while waiting for the chemo meds to finish. although i did felt tired in the afternoon, probablybecause of all the walking i did to go to the drug store to buy my post-chemo meds.

hopefully this next 3 weeks would be the same with the last post chemo session, just a few days enduring the extreme side effects (3 to be exact), and feeling okay for most of it. just needed to be going for follow ups with my pulmonologist to check the fluid levels in my lungs to avoid any more complications. and being doubly careful to avoid getting sick from anything.

and then in the coming weeks i will be coordinating with my oncologist to know what lab tests to take to know that status of the cancer tumor and how it is reacting to the treatment so we would know how many more chemotherapy sessions do we need to dissolve this cancer shit out of my body. here's to hoping for the best.

btw, thank you for all the people who are doing all these work to keep supporting me with my fight against the big c. of course my family who never fails to keep me sane and making sure i don't explode when i get too aggitated. thanks a lot for my d&d friends for hosting all these games and charity events so that people would be able to donate to my medical fund campaign. and for all the people that continue to send their positive thoughts and prayers, thank you as well.
