A few years ago I discovered that we have a rare genetic mutation running in the family which causes stomach and breast cancer. I had my own DNA checked and I also carry the mutation. The stomach cancer is the worst part of it, because it is very very difficult to check for it. I’ve been at risk since I was 20. If bad cells would spread at any point beyond the stomach, there is basically nothing the doctors would be able to do for me. Same thing if I would get any physical complaints at some point. So in the past years I’ve been under surveillance by the best specialist in my country and they did find cancer cells. They say the bad spot looks calm (not growing through the walls of my stomach), but because it’s so difficult to check them right and because I’m still so young, they’ve advised me to take action. And the only possible action is to remove my full stomach in surgery (the global guidelines are to do this surgery right away when someone is just carrying the mutation, the check ups are new). And yes, it is possible to live without a stomach. This is what they will do in surgery: So that’s why I’m getting surgery coming Tuesday and I’ll be gone from the server for a bit. I don’t know for how long, because recovery is so different per person, as are the long term complaints. So I either might be back quite soon, being all bored from not being able to do much, or it might take me a while before I have energy to do anything at all. We’ll see. Anyway, as you can imagine it will be a very intense surgery and recovery will take a long time. I’ll have to figure out how much I can eat at once, what kinds of food my body is able to handle after, a whole new rhythm of eating every two hours without any feeling of hunger, and all the symptoms my body is gonna throw at me whenever I make a ‘mistake’ in these things. Etc etc. That being said, I just wanted you all to know. Also, I’m very bad at responding to texts and messages, especially when there are many and I’m not feeling well, so please don’t be offended if I won’t respond to any or I would respond with an emoji only Just know that all and any support is appreciated JAYsus_NL, AthenA, Merlin007 and 30 others 2 24 7 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

A good friend of mine, her dad had that cancer in stomach and similar surgery to you, he did change his eating style and habits afterwards, then kept on being the doctor he was before like nothing different. Still kept playing tennis, still kept doing his normal stuff. He did die but not of cancer, I think he had a stroke/bad heart issues - it was sudden and unexpected and I did not ask questions, only listened, pretty sure he had a bad, unfixable heart. Hell of a thing, I am so so sorry! You are such a sweet heart. OK now. Cancer meds have made such progress, they are in the process of making, evidently, a pill that cancer patients can take every day and that will keep the T-Cells (thyroid blood cells) up to date on what type of cells they should be seeking out to stomp out, so modern day beefing up of the immune system to fight the good fight. Have you been told yet that this is treatable, doable, and that you should, with monitoring, be able to get on with your life? The key is getting diagnosed so that treatments can begin and those stupid cancer cells can be zapped and outta here. Apparently, cancer cells or cancer like cells run around in our bodies all the time and it is the T-Cells that find em and kill em for most of the time. (Disclaimer, I am not a doctor, but I did sleep on a great mattress last night and do think I know what I am talking about.) Here is a link for and example of that new T-Cell type of treatment being worked on and some folks can use now, lots and lots more to come soon too, apparently. https://www.envita.com/conditions/integrative-oncologists-providing-holistic-cancer-treatment-options You wanna message me, I give good advice - I help out with survival groups, some of them cancer survivors, I hear all sorts of stuff like - great breakthrough news for cancer patients, major breakthroughs happening now, great success on this and that trial, for example. One thing about surgeries, don't forget to be proactive with pain meds, I would always tend to take half of whatever they prescribed pain wise, but at least 30 minutes early, that way the pain would not settle in and become a problem, then by using only half of the pill at a time, I would not have any risk of getting addicted or needing pain meds later on, that is just what I have done has worked OK for me, everyone is different though with different pain tolerances and healing processes. (I tend to get hurt and need surgery alot oops.) TAKE CARE and hopefully we will see you in the maps soon!

So sorry to hear that you have to go through this surgery. I had a cancer in 2017 and also had a surgery to remove an organ, but a little lower than you. It was very heavy, also with a reconstruction. I stayed around 5 hours in the operating room. Then I stayed for a while at the hospital but the recovery was OK and not too painful. So, I hope it will go as well for you! Very friendly WeednFeed, Majbasil and Bamm 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options... Awards
