Thank you for your reply, Mike. I see a lot of horror stories on here and my mind can't help going to some dark places. I have been eating some foods but I think that sometimes I go a little too fast and the pain becomes overwhelming. Oh I long for a big ol' burrito like I used to enjoy so much before this ordeal started. I have been feeling better and have been forcing myself to get out of the house and resume some of the activities that I enjoy. I go back to work in a couple weeks and I am starting school again after taking a year off to earn a masters degree, My main struggle these days is having to wait for my follow-up pet scan to see if they got all of the cancer. The hurry up and wit is kind of a drag. Thank you for relating your experience to me and for the kind and encouraging words.
