I made sure to keep her spirits up and cheer her on—I even made sure she had the cutest pajamas in the entire ward and the prettiest wig, which I picked out myself. She was an incredible woman throughout her whole life, and even in those final moments. .

My heart truly goes out to you.

but honestly, I’d suggest doing this at home. You don't need any fancy training or specialized needles; you'll run into way fewer issues that way. Trust me, once you get used to it, you won't even think about the nausea while taking Temozolomide.

Taking

They're using Ondansetron, and we’re going to try adding flaxseeds too—thanks for the tip!! Also, does anyone have recommendations for dealing with constipation during treatment?

Has anyone heard of any herbal teas or supplements that can help coat the stomach lining? I'm looking for something to help buffer the effects of chemo so it isn't so hard on the stomach. This is really urgent because my aunt started her second round of Temodar today, and she’s already thrown up 7 or 8 times. She can't even keep water down without feeling sick... we tried giving her some popcorn and peppermint tea, but she ended up throwing that back up too. 😢

I guess that's what happens when you try to quote the same message in multiple parts...

Just click on the cell you want to use, head up to the formula bar, and type something like 2, then hold down AltGr and hit the 3 key, followed by the number you want to raise it to—say, 5... and that cell will spit out 32.

It would look like this: 2^5

Hi there,

I'm looking to start my own small business—a mix of retail and services!

What's the full checklist for getting this off the ground? I actually completed my training as an auto body painter over in Germany and have my certification ready to go.

Is there a specific agency here in the States that handles all the red tape and paperwork? If such a service exists, or if anyone knows who I should reach out to regarding the requirements, I’d really appreciate it if you could shoot me an email at ***obrisan e-mail***

Thanks in advance!

Best, Vlad

Weird 😵

Personally, I think there’s something really classy about seeing a girl wearing a skirt paired with dark, opaque black tights 😳

It shows on my face immediately—I get this incredibly heavy, sad look. I find myself trying to stay out and about as much as possible, even if it’s just wandering around alone. There’s something about being lost in a crowd that makes me feel like the pain might actually fade away for a second. But even then, I end up retreating into myself. I barely say a word.

Like, if someone just treats you like garbage?😢

It’s a pretty shitty feeling when things really hurt.

I usually just shut down, retreat into my own head, and obsess over where I messed up or the exact second I let things get this far.
Then I end up being totally checked out from everyone, which usually leads to me snapping at someone else and passing that pain right along to them.

And then the whole cycle just repeats itself, I guess.

Whether it's being betrayed by someone or losing someone close to you (death or stuff like that),
I always react the same way 🙄
I know it isn't easy for the people around me, but honestly, my mouth usually moves faster than my brain.

Run a full scan on your PC for viruses and spyware, because that’s most likely what's dragging your system down...

Angela Wright said:that a new medication is expected to be cleared for clinical use here by the end of the year.

Which drug are you talking about??

Sorry if I’m posting in the wrong sub, but I wanted to ask—how do you guys express pain? For me, I tend to be pretty blunt and constantly snap at people... it’s almost like an impulse I can't control. Everyone just gets under my skin, and I feel this constant urge to take someone down a notch, even when they're actually trying to be there for me. I know it’s not the best way to handle things, but honestly, I just can't seem to help myself. 😳

Arthur Bailey6 said:Hey everyone!
I need some advice from anyone who actually knows their way around denim shops—and better yet, people who know their raw denim.
I really want to buy a pair of high-quality jeans just once in my life... my criteria are pretty specific: I don't want them to sag the second I wear them so I don't end up looking 10 pounds heavier, they shouldn't be so thin that they highlight every single imperfection, and I want a tougher fabric that flattens things out a bit and maybe a slimmer cut.
To all my fellow shopaholics out there, tell me where I should start looking!!!
Thanks in advance🙂

p.s. Are 100% cotton jeans actually better, or are blends with elastane better or worse?

Everything I'm looking for actually fits one specific pair I found at Loft, though I decided to go with a flare cut instead of the straight leg ones.

I just got slapped with 10 off-topic points, and the reason given was "private"??

Is there something you just don't like about me? 😁 😁

Edit: figured it out...

Christian Wood63 said:If you're just doing low doses like 5 or 20 mg daily, the tumor builds up resistance super fast, which makes the prognosis pretty grim over the next month or two.
According to some studies, if you administer Temozolomide once a month—basically on a 28-day cycle—for two years, there's a significant chance of extending survival rates.
The moment you stop the Temozolomide, that's when you risk a relapse.

Okay, monthly, fine... but what kind of dosage are we talking about? (She’s currently on 250 mg)
Are you seriously suggesting that after six months, God forbid, we should be expecting a relapse???

Angela Wright said:I can't say for sure, but there’s definitely some kind of protocol in place. Honestly, Temozolomide is a pretty heavy-duty drug—it's basically poison—so the real question is how long the body and organs can actually handle it. I really doubt someone could stay on it for their entire life.
My advice? Just do what she did: Google the top medical centers in the world and email them your test results along with an inquiry.
Another thing to keep in mind is that you can't just pick up Temozolomide over the counter; you're going to need a prescription and official documentation. This isn't like buying aspirin at a drugstore where they don't ask questions. It all comes down to whether her oncologist is willing to sign off on it. Be prepared for some hurdles.😳

I've already sent out emails to a few places, so fingers crossed I hear back soon. I'm hopeful the oncologist will agree to it. Let's just see if she can make it through these next five rounds of therapy first, then we'll know where we stand. 😳 Thanks, Angela! By the way, how is your mom doing? I haven't seen any posts from Amanda Williams64 in a while—do you have any updates on her mother?

Since we’re paying out of pocket for the medication anyway, what’s the best way to get in touch with oncologists abroad to ask for their professional opinion?
Angela Wright, does the Temozolomide treatment continue indefinitely, or is it only administered if the cancer comes back?
