I have cancer

Yup still in hospital.


Not sure what to do yet....it's a big tumor.

I understand on very sunny snowy days sun would be more dangerous because there would exposure + reflection because of the snow.

But why on overcast days? Can you expand on that?

This is poor advice and very dangerous to do without sunscreen.

Read something about baking soda somewhere.....not sure if it was here.....

even a dermatologist would tell you to get a little sun light without sun screen each day. Got to have it to make vit D in the body. There is a lot of great advise here in this thread.

You have to be seriously unlucky to get damaged by that. If we use that logic, humidity should effect even more.

One other thing, according to alternative medicine/traditional chinese medicine, long term anger can cause cancer and long term sadness can cause tumors. I do know there is a strong mind/body connection so it wouldn't hurt to see if you have been harboring long term anger/sadness and try to resolve it. One thing you do have right now is time to think about this.

Here is a good website to help people resolve emotions/trauma/etc. There is a free how to e-book on the right side of the page. Maybe give it a try if you want and see what happens.

It's Lymphoma ...the good kind that can be cured we hope.


And it's big. It's 17 cm and inside my belly. The full pathology report has not come back yet and had the needle biopsy done Friday after I was admitted into the hospital.

I appreciate pregnant women a lot more now. When you have a big mass in your belly it really is hard to get comfortable.

It hurts. It takes up a lot of room in there and takes some good meds to keep the pain back. It felt like my back was on fire and a grenade went off in my stomach. I would rather have another kidney stone this hurt so bad.

I've had to have 3 units of blood as well because my hemoglobin was down to 6.9. and 2 iron infusions.

It's too big to operate on because it's wrapped around my stomach and small intestine.....looks like I had lap band surgery to my stomach it's so small. They have to shrink it to see what is the next step.

Biggest tumor I've ever seen and many the doctors have ever seen.

I'm scared and bored and GLP has been my home for years. I've not been posting much lately because the truth is I've been sick.


Just FYI, I had been swimming for 4 months and lost 32 lbs when this came about. I eat healthy, its just one of those things I don't understand. I started my first dose of Chemo last night and didn't sleep any and feel pretty wired.

Praying for you



My father had the same, so I know what you are going through

It has nothing to with luck. It's science.

if you have that biopsy the cancer will spread.

be warned.

if you have the chemo you will die.

be warned.
