Got my CT Scan done today. The entire trip took around 4 hours but the actual scan took only less than 10 mins! If only they can invent some kind of home use device for self scanning, it’d be so convenient. As always, I drank a lot, I mean a lot of water after the [...]
I saw the the doctor today and the ct scan came back with great result, still no sign of cancer!! The doctor gave me the option to have the medi-port implant for chemotherapy removed and of course I agreed to it! The procedure will be done on Tuesday 6/10 which is about 3.5 weeks from [...]

Sorry I haven’t updated my blog for a while. I am ok! I have been enjoying life a bit =) It feels really nice to have no chemo, no appointment with the doctors, no medications to take, no mental or physical stress and basically just feel freeeeee and be able to do normal things. The [...]
I am not a big fan of drugs. Normally I don’t like to take them, even flu/cough medicine or vitamins. These days I am a big druggie. Chemotherapy drugs, anti-nausea drugs, anti-allergic drugs, I take them all. How ironic huh?? Target Drug Containers – Photo by Bigfly Where do you buy your medicine? We have [...]
Today I woke up with minor headache. Took one of the anti-nauseous pills, Zofran and the headache went away after 20 mins. The chemo bottle finished pretty early at around 10am.
