Sorry I haven't posted anything for a while. I got busy with some stuff, and felt bad on other days where I just didn't want to get up from our new comfy couch.
I got an interesting new symptom. I got an area on top of my head, slightly to the ride side, that is very sensitive. It's about a square inch in size and does not differ in color or texture. Just sensitive when I touch it.
I also noticed that my front lower teeth, specifically 3 of them, are also sensitive. Sometimes they feel tingly and numb.
I have caught a small cold. My throat hurts a little, and I a cough a lot. There is no temperature, I check it often.
Hopefully with some old school honey-tea-lemon therapy this will go away.
Status update regarding my marijuana licence:
I've sent all the documents needed to the compassionate care center of Toronto. They said everything will take about 2 weeks to process. And it still be illegal officially. The only way to make it all kosher, is to go through a minimum of 12 week waiting period through the gov. I asked if there is a way to speed up the process, and the lady at the gov agency told me that only if the doctors says that I am terminal.
The compassionate center should hook me up with some quality medicinal grade stuff regardless if I got the licence or not. :-)
Below is a pic of all the medicine that I used to take to combat the symptoms. None of the drugs effectively combat the symptoms. You also see a joint, half of it is just a paper filter.. there's not much marijuana in there.. maybe 1/5 of a gram. And it does an amazing job of taking care of the symptoms.
That being said. I am extremely upset at my government for making such a hassle to get a licence. I mean if a doctor says it helps, not just the patient. What business does a politician have in preventing it from being accessible in a controlled manner, just like any other prescription drug.
Ok, I am done venting!
I got a ct scan coming up on the 30th, with doc appointment soon after, and finally chemo #4 on April 3.
Hopefully, the doc will say that everything is going as it should and that 6 chemo sessions is all that needed. I am really crossing my fingers for that. I am really not looking forward for my next chemo. But I've made it this far, not going to quit now!
I will let you guys know how my ct scan goes asap!
Preach!!! Government has no business overruling something that is already deemed legal by the province. This type of ridiculousness is happening in America as well. Legal on a state level but illegal on a federal level. When gravol finds a way to make money off hash you will be able to pick it up at your local drug store. You will be getting coupons for 25% off hash packets. For now just lock your door, your balcony, your bedroom door, go under a blanket and secretly light your joint. And don't make a peep or the mounties will get ya!
