Nice Jugs......

For my pee you savages!!!!


Last 24 hours I have been peeing into these jugs... (seriously get your head out of the gutter).. I'm told that nueroendorcine tumors often secrete hormones. Most commonly serotonin. These excess hormones can cause symptoms etc. and can help docs understand best course of treatment. By testing 24 hours worth of urine they can get a much more accurate look vs blood as the levels in blood can flucuate durring the day..... "Increased SerotonisSigns and symptoms include agitation, anxiety, restlessness, disorientation, diaphoresis, hyperthermia, tachycardia, nausea, vomiting, tremor, muscle rigidity, hyperreflexia, myoclonus, dilated pupils, ocular clonus, dry mucous membranes, flushed skin, increased bowel sounds, and a bilateral Babinski sign. NIH"


None of that above sounds like me LMFAO..... A bilateral babinski sounds like a pitch in baseball...... "struck him out with the bilateral babinski again!!!"


Anyway, tomorrow we see the medical oncologist again to review the non surgical treament plan. Colorectal team called today and we are locking down the 18th or 25th of Jan for bowel resction/appendix removal etc. Assume they might try to remove messentary mass too, but not sure yet...


That's all for now.... Sincere thanks to all that have been commenting, following, reaching out etc.
