It's only a week..

Assalamualaikum..

Allah, including today it has been 6 days of radiotherapy. However, the side effect of radiotherapy have already show itself over the weekend. I feel my tongue is scalding, its like I deliberately eat or drink hot food.

Allah, Allah! I can't taste most of the food now. Sometime my tongue would even bleed. And I guess this is the early stage of the side effect from radiotherapy. They said my skin would burn up and turn black later.

Narrated Abu Hurairah (radi Allahu anhu) that the Prophet (sal Allahu alaihi wa sallam) said: “There is no disease that Allah has sent down except that He also has sent down its treatment.” [The Book of Medicine: Sahih Bukhari]

 And if I have to suffer minor side effect from my treatment, so be it. For I am a Muslim. And I believe that every disease He send to us as a reminder from Him. After all we are forgetful.

Insya-Allah, I will get by this. The blessing behind this, well..I will lose weight no? Looking forward to it..Hehe..

Radiotherapy & Chemotherapy

Salam.

So on 13/2/2012, I will begin my daily radiotherapy treatment. Still can't imagine how's life going to be after this. And yes, daily, from Monday to Friday I have to go for radiotherapy. Imagine how much the cost is going to be.

And then, there's chemotherapy. But it's not daily only weekly. So once a week, before radiotherapy I have to go for the chemotherapy first. How long, I have no idea. What type, clueless also, but definitely not the pill type since my cancer is at my nose area. I will receive my first chemotherapy treatment on 16/2/2012..and I've read all the side effects..I guess that's why cancer patient is associated with bald hair :D

But my doctor already told me that, as soon I began my radiotherapy, my saliva glands will be permanently damaged. That's mean 24 hour of oral hygiene and about 5-6 years of avoiding any dental appointment. However they already arranged for fluorite treatment for every 3 month to avoid any problem with my teeth..and I just had my first fluorite treatment this month.

 Anyway, last Chinese New Year went back to Tumpat, to Mok Long's house. Had a good time. My brother who's currently trying hard to gain weight actually gained 3kg from staying 4 days at Kelantan. Hahahaha. Also celebrated my 23rd birthday there..nothing special really..didn't ask for anything..well except for money!! xD

 Now for the coming 4,5,6,7,8 February, have no idea where to go. So many place to go, so little time, so little money..awww

I have cancer..

Salam..on January 5th, 2012 I was diagnosed with nasopharyngeal cancer. The doctor guess it was stage 2, because without the latest CT scan. After all this year, neglecting this blog, suddenly boom 2012 start with this news. Ouch~~ Hahaha
