The ‘Anything and Everything’ Thread

Hey sorry to bring this chat down but I have been diagnosed with a brain tumour (benign it seems) ..long shot but has anyone here had any experience with it. I have an acoustic nuroema

 

[PJ]

Best of luck Roboshark. Nothing I can add except a) great it is benign and b) medical advances are going forward rapidly. One of the podcasts I listen to the host had a malignant, inoperable tumor that should have been fatal but 10 years on going strong. Bryan Bishop is the guy and he wrote a book called Shrinkage that may be worth a read.

There’s some stuff on the web @roboshark, I’m pleased to say, a lot of it quite positive. So that’s a relief of sorts anyway.

Poor old Merritt, his body just started shutting down with little or no warning.

He’s shown slight improvement, holding the ball up over the line, all power to him.

Good luck with it Robo. I have no brilliant solutions for you . Just dont dismiss the alternative stuff simply cause its unproven yet in scientific models of last few years . I am great believer in truth of science ,( thats what its about ) however some people dont understand that Science is working on few hundred yrs of data collection under strict rules on relatively small sample sizes , Some of the herbal Remedies have HUGE sample sizes over many many hundreds of years, even thousands.(also have lotta witch doctors trying to make money out of bullshite ) Anyway , get educated About it . My sister lived 25 yrs after first cancer diagnosis giving her 5 years.

Yeah mate I have read HEAPS since Friday when I was diagnosed. It's overwhelming. See my neurosurgeon tomorrow. Wasn't sure if anybody you have lived it first hand

I haven’t lived it but it seems all the odds are in your favour unless you’re in a very small percentage and even then, there’s still a chance.

Good luck tomorrow.

These neuro people are the lions of the medical den!

We are lucky to be alive now than in the past. They’d give us a leach or bleeding to cure us.

 

[shadowboxer]

Hope all goes well Robo.

 

[sladden road]

Yep. All the best Robo.

What’s the latest @roboshark in the broad terms?

Any operations pending or is it “ watch and act”

 

[Miller was a legend]

Positive thoughts for you Robo

 

[DJDL]

Sorry to hear that @roboshark, though glad to hear it's benign.
Fight the good fight mate, you've got this.

 

[Mr Angry]

Got a dad joke to cheer you up Robbo.

So I went to the doc and got a brain scan, doc says your brain is in perfect healthy.

Then adds so are you going to start using it dickhead.

Need surgery to remove it. Will be either 21st 28th Nov or 8th December. It's a big size. 4cm x 3 cm x 2.5cm

@roboshark another story-when the boy was young we went to the western Sydney waterpark.

And they have these animatronic dinosaurs and their mouths open and close with the fake growls and roars.

And he was being very naughty and I had a no smack policy.

He kept carrying on. So I picked him up and walked over to dinasaur and all of a sudden, he’s chilled. So he was released and was well behaved.

He had a dream when he was little that he was being chased by a giant cup cake.

He’s doing very well at school and he looks like the postman.

Has a strange interest in motorbikes

Ok, well then it’s got to be sorted and that’s what I would do too.

It’s a big relief that’s it’s operable. High five.

I have a close relative survive the cancer, I’m sending you all of the mighty, unbeaten recovery vibes.

These neurosurgeons, the lions of the den.
