Robert, make sure to check with the docs before you add anything into or modify your diet. You can never be too careful. Oh, and the strippers... I mean nurses are on their way...

we're with you Rob , you mad bastard ... don't take no for an answer and do what the specialists say , forget about this internet crap, full of misinformation and wannabes
Hi friends, just updating you on Rob's results. He came back from Peter Mac today with some positive news about the progress of the lymphoma. - 50% of people with it will be cured completely - 70% of people live beyond 3,5, or 7 years - but Rob is invincible!!! He will start chemo next week and has ordered Nurse Lovely. The next few months will test him, and be quite yucky, however i'm sure he will keep on fighting. He will have access to his internet at the hospital. He will be there for 4 days at a time, every 3 weeks over the next 4-6 months. No further tumours were found in his body, however, 9/10 cases the tumours are tiny and cannot be detected. They can be found via chest or stomach biopsy but he has decided to start chemo straight away. There was no cancer found in his bone marrow, and the specialist is of the opinion that he is at a very early stage of the lymphoma. Rob asked the question (not that he would) if he just rubbed a tonic on his body, how long would i live? The doctor said about 3-6 months (without treatment) He's being very positive, and will be fighting as much as possible. Cya. Catherine.
chemo is awful Rob. You will feel and look like sh*t. Friends of mine have said, "I didn't feel sick from the cancer, only from the treatment!" But it is highly effective and the side effects disappear a few days after the treatment ends. I'm sure you'll be in the 50% complete cure group.
VERY curable. Drinking wine during the chemo is not the best idea though Fight it off and enjoy your car.
Hi JM,yep will have mobil feel free to give it out to the usual nutters/dheads ect,be in for 4 days with nurse loverly,then home/work then 3 weeks latter back in this will go on for 4/6 months.GUNNA give it my best shot regards Rob.
