ohh
hodgkins disease can sometimes bring on nyfrotic syndrome..which makes every place in your body retain water..and swwell up extremely badly
i had that and couldnt walk for almost a month

after that was done i got a radom chest x-ray and it showed something, i had to get a biopsied but they ended up removing it
i had stage 1 but they moved it to 2 b/c i was already being treated with prednisone(steriod) to cure the nyfrotic syndrome


you were in lockup?

They couldnt get mine with surgery. And yeah I was in lockup for 2 years. As a kid I got in alot of trouble but cancer cured me of it haha. Suddenly your priorities come to order when your a kid with cancer haha.

well... im not a hodgkins survivor,
but i know the pain of chemo and raditiation (esophogeal cancer + one massive tumor hell bent on blowing up my bronchial tubes)

and smoking helped me get my appitite like nothing else.... when i left the hospital i weighed a whopping 99ilbs from my normal 120+
im now steady at 110 and i dont use weed to eat any more, without noticing, i just started to hungry randomly.... though i still smoke, cause i dont know about you but all the Cdrugs make me feeel subhuman.... weed brings me back to earth and really really makes my body happy, you know?

Reb- how long did your hair take to get long?
i feel so lost w.o my long hair! till that point, it was never cut above my shoulders.... now its up at my ears :[

[thcbongman]

yea my hair did fall out...that was the worst part of everything b/c i had really straight long hair and i loved it and it like completed me lol
it already started growing back like a month ago so thats all good right now

After chemo, my hair grew back curly, soft and a lighter shade than it was before. Can't say I am disappointed by that aspect!

So when those people say you hair will grow back curly, they aren't joking lol!
