Might have cancer...Turns Out I Didn't.

The throat kind. We'll see next week or later this week.
I can't eat or drink without vomiting.
I don't want to go through chemo. My loved ones do not understand.
Hopefully it's something they can cut out.
UPDATE:
It's all good.

A good friend of mine was just diagnosed with stage 4 pancreatic cancer. He was feeling fine just a week ago.
I hope you're okay. Might just be an ulcer.

If you can't eat or drink without vomiting, you should really be in there or somewhere tomorrow..not possibly next week.
Get better.

My neighbor was diagnosed at the beginning of October. She was buried Sunday.
And prayers to the OP. Throat cancer is very treatable. Pancreas not so much.

Do you have reason to believe it's cancer? I vomit after eating constantly and it's just really bad acid-reflux. Hope you are alright.

Found some growths in my throat. They biopsied then. We'llsee.
Honestly, I'd rather eat a dry aged ribeye, a bottle of good red, grilled asparagus, a salt rubbed baked potato and half a loaf of crunchy baguette with olive salad.
Then go out on my pier, watch the moon set over the lake and have a nice bullet go through my head.
I'm 35. I have no children. No wife. No dependents. I have a mother and father. A brother and sister.
I'd rather them remember me, not a walking skeleton.
ETA. Badass bleu cheese salad with shredded pork belly bitches!

frick man, I am sure it isn't but if it is do that chemo and most importantly don't let that shite get you down! My buddy had BAD Stage 4 colon cancer a few years ago and his doctor told him to have as much fun as possible so he would want to live, we would go to the bars/casino/strip club every night before a session because he knew he would be throwing up anyways the next day from chemo. Anyways at the time he had a 6% chance to make it 3 years after chemo which he just hit this month so knock on wood he made it through. Really my only cancer experience in people so take it FWIW but he just partied, spent time in Cabo and all around lived it up with a great attitude and beat the odds bigly.
My buddy was the exact same age when he got it with the same situation minus the brother, he ate and drink like a fat king and even gained weight during it. Stage 4 to undetectable in 5 1/2 months. And he wasn't some healthy dude, just had the best docs for the surgery and had a great attitude. Still have a 2+ foot scar down his sternum but who gives a shite....he just sent me a pic from cabo last week shithoused in a Denver Broncos Sombrero!

Not all chemo is the same. And, it's not what it used to be. Pease consider treating it and listen to your dr. If MD Anderson is an option, I highly recommend going there ASAP.

Well having had miserable fricking acid reflux for years you can develop nodules around your vocal cords and that and it's from the acid reflux and can sometimes be asymptomatic. The nodules end up being the tell tell for the reflux.
Think positive. I hope its good. Two guys I work with have survived throat cancer. Doing really well.

Are you in BR? If so, you need to see someone in the LSU Head and Neck center located on the fourth floor of Mary Bird Perkins. Those guys are the best around, unless there is some sort of specialized clinical trial that is only available at MD Anderson, you will get the same quality of care there, and be closer to your family.
There are lots of different types of cancer that can be in that area, and depending on the stage, many are very treatable/curable. Treatment will almost certainly be surgery followed by radiation, and possibly chemotherapy. The treatment can be rough, but people get through it every day.
There are also supports for you to help you cope with the diagnosis and treatment. Social workers, psychology services, dietitians, etc. A cancer diagnosis does not have to be a death sentence, especially by your own hand. Treatments have come too far to automatically assume the worst.
