I Want to Be Healthy

This is a follow up from my post about eating healthier and costs.

I can’t sleep because these chemo drugs are burning me from the inside out - I’m in constant pain now. I took two pain meds - one every four hours, hoping the first, then the second, would knock me out. No such luck. I’ve been awake since yesterday morning - when I had a “nap” around 9 am. It’ll be 24 hours soon and I don’t do well with lack of sleep.

So since I couldn’t sleep I did the math and this is total cost of the chemo drugs I’m on - 6 chemo treatments - ~$48,432.33
That’s a lot of money.
And it doesn’t end there.
The ultrasounds and bloodwork and mammograms...
Then I have surgery.
Then radiation.
My vitamin C IV therapy. Hyperthermia. Massage, chiropractor. Organic food. Air conditioning - bc I get super hot super fast. Wigs. Hats. Parking.

I also ended up watching some videos on YouTube about ppl who have faked having cancer to get sympathy, medical costs paid, trips, tickets to events, etc. That Belle Gibson is the absolute f’in worst. Ppl listened to her and forgo the traditional treatments. They died. She should be in jail for manslaughter.

How could anyone ever fake this? Or want to? I’ve lost my hair. I look sick, bc I am. I can barely walk these days. Walking stairs leaves me breathless. I’m terrified of picking up an infection. Omg this is one of the most heartless and brutal diseases I know of.
