Scanxiety!!

Tomorrow I see my medical oncologist for blood test results, and my latest three month scan results.
I’m not worried about the blood test.
Regarding the scan results, I vacillate between:
- over the top confidence that there will be absolutely no sign of a tumour
- evidence that the tumour is still there
- an inconclusive result.
This video is lighthearted, but scanxiety is serious business.

I just got my results back 2 weeks ago. I’m the opposite and of you: I read the radiology report first and then look at the images so I can use my 15 minutes with the doctor as meaningfully as possible. My brain looked about the same.
The doctor spent the whole time scolding me over my 1 week water and electrolyte fast. Turns out he was right, my white counts were low, so I couldn’t get my 6th round of chemo, not to mention I was tremendously weak and uncoordinated (could barely walk). After that I said Fucck It, and started eating normally again (including carbs)-unfortunately I also stopped checking my GKI at this point-I’m finally feeling back to pretty much normal after 1 week. We shall see if I pay for my sins…

Wow you really went for it with that fast! It’s hard not to do something extreme when you have cancer though. I mean, if it helps slow or stop tumour growth, it’s worth it.
Who the hell knows. I applaud your commitment to helping yourself. You probably didn’t do any long term harm. Stay strong. Get some healthy fats into ya. I’m into blue cheese right now. Can’t get enough.

I just want to get into the best physical shape of my life. Can you imagine how great the insulin resistance is in those top-tier cross fitters? And when they do eat carbs it would jump right into muscle glycogen. I wonder what their fasting blood glucose is. I see you out and about hiking in your videos so that’s great!

Yes physical exercise in nature is my favourite thing. When I’m down I just go out and walk amongst the trees and bugs and birds. Life is miraculous
