still really impacted by fatigue. Sleeping 14 hrs of every 24, with occasional 20min naps in between.
However, my verbal acuity is getting back to speed.

It feels like it might be a virus. I just tested negative* for COVID on my home test, so I'm going to shoot a note to my PCP asking if a phone consult would be the next step or going to urgent care for the combined flu/covid/RSV test that I can get there.

*I'm very clear on the rate of false negative outcomes on a home test. the instructions say to test again on the third day, but I'm getting advice from my own provider before then.
 
OK, I've now learned the diagnosis from the various tests. I'm in stage 4 liver cancer with some malignant tumors in my neck.
If I refuse any treatment I have 6 months to live with steadily deteriorating disagreeable symptoms.
If I accept a chemo treatment paired with immunotherapy, I'm given about a year to live, maybe more. But with a better quality of life.
I'm taking Plan B. So sometime next year I'll be reviewing my options. Nothing is off the table.......
Anchorchain, I'm sorry. Wishing you strengþ and comfort. I'm sorry for not knowing what, more specifically, to bid

Sounds like a good idea to rule the other out too! Sorry you aren’t feeling top notch from being over this. Get well soon✨🌙💫

I feel sick. I haven't eaten properly in months. My arms look like toothpicks and I can barely recognize my face anymore. I don't know what to do.
I'm sorry this is happening. I hope it's okay to say this. Is this a matter of not having the money then I hope you can find a food bank or get ahold of other free food. If it's emotional then I empathize because when I am anxious or depressed, or pretty much any overwhelming emotion I lose my appetite. Like right now I have to force mself to eat a couple of normal meals each day. Try to care for yourself a little bit every day.
