4 1/2 months out--229lbs---Down 84lbs!
Jan 17, 2010
I am now 229lbs! It feels great! The last time I was 229lbs was 10years ago! It's wonderful to be more active and feel lighter. I am still recovering from my hysterectomy, and that's been okay also. I got the results of a CT scan I had 2 weeks ago, and they are good! There was no evidence of any cancer anywhere! While that may be good news, I still have to undergo some type of preventative treatment. The type of cancer that I have is Endometrial Stromal Sarcoma--and while I don't have a uterus anymore the chances of it recurring elsewhere is a definite possibility unless I take medication to suppress it. I have been referred to another Oncologist to see what my options are. Within the last week I have been feeling very Menopausal. I have had hot flashes, and fatigue, and just an overall odd feeling. The hot flashes are very strange--it feels like someone suddenly turns on a heater that is blowing really hot air on you. It is uncomfortable. I have definitely been irritable, I am a lot more impatient than I was before. My Dr. has told me I "will NEVER be able to take hormone replacement drugs, EVER!" He was emphatic about it. The hormones could fuel my cancer for sure. I am going to have to research my options. Other than ALL THAT, I am feeling great. I have a positive outlook and I know that I am going to be better really soon!
