Hi guys. So I haven't been around in a while, life without CN has been similar to life with CN :P.

MK is doing well on their forums.

I graduated college a year ago next week. Still looking for work, but recently, I had to suspend my job search.

So, now to get to the point of the topic.

In March, I had some routine blood tests performed because of my epilepsy and the results were abnormal, in a rather unexpected way. So my neurologist asked me to get it repeated at a hospital that he had privileges at. The blood work was still abnormal, so my GP told me to go to a hematologist/oncologst, which I did. He was very confused by my blood work, and did a bone marrow biopsy on April 15th (hurt quite a bit). He eventually referred me to a specialist at Columbia University Medical Center, who I saw last week.

He said I have either NK Cell LGL Lymphoma or NK Cell LGL Leukemia, each of which have around 10 diagnoses a year.

He also said that my case is indolent, or slow to progress, which means that I can be treated with oral chemotherapy, which should hopefully get rid of it.

So I am not making this post to ask for money (as my health insurance *should* cover everything, if it doesn't, i'll think of something), I am simply asking for support from a community I have been a part of for nine years now.

So I have decided to start up a blog which is a work in progress. So come and visit it, post comments, and if you want, crosspost this topic/post on the forums of your alliances.

Again, the link to my blog is http://igotcancer.net.

Good Bros2

 

 I have known you a long time and you have helped many in our community. If it does not offend I shall a prayer or two send your way.

Get better.

 

Respectfully

Dame Hime Themis

E-hugs are good, and viewing the blog is cool :P


In that case... *huggles bros* Pfft, you know I viewed it. It made me realize you and my son were both born at 25 weeks. Craziness. Anyways, I hope you're feeling good.

You know the stuff your son was hooked up to?

Yeah... they based that stuff off of me.

I have been asked to send healing energy to an old player (going as far back as LUE?) and am happy to do so. 

 

 

May the Gods bless bros2 and see the forces that are threatening him purged so we may enjoy his company for a long time to come.

Had my own brush with basal cell carcinoma a while back.  I credit early treatment and my surgeon for my recovery and being a whole lot more careful about the Sun for me being cancer free every since.  Cancer of any type sucks.

 

Get better, bros.

I'll see if I can get Morgaine to declare war on your cancer. It's working so far for Dajobo. I'M freaking afraid of her.

I'm sad to hear this. Good luck bros. I hope you have a quick recovery.


I just want the non-iron deficient anemia to go away tbh
