  • My physical and mental state on the last day of my second last round of treatment.
    TIMELINE:
    AUG 2, 2023 - Diagnosed with brain tumor.
    AUG 4, 2023 - Surgery to remove brain tumor.
    SEP 14 to OCT 30 2023 - Radiotherapy/Chemotherapy.
    NOV 2023 - Four weeks without treatment, followed by an MRI.
    DEC 2023 to MAY 2024 - Six months of taking a stronger chemotherapy pill five days per month.
    On August 2, 2023, after experiencing increasingly severe symptoms, I was diagnosed with a grade 4 astrocytoma brain tumor.
    On August 4, I had surgery to remove the tumor. I was told they removed ninety-five percent of it.
    For six weeks from September 14 2023, I underwent five-days-a-week of precision radiation treatment, at the same time as taking 125mg of temozolomide pills daily.
    This was followed by five weeks of no treatment.
    I am currently 5 months into 6 months of further cancer treatment, in which I am taking temozolomide pills for five days of each month. This dose is 330mg, which is 195mg stronger than the dose I took during radiation.
    I am fighting this from my end with a healthy ketogenic diet, and an exercise regime which includes weights, walking and swimming.
    If anyone wants to share any helpful tips, success stories, or knows of research on the metabolic approach to cancer that I could be involved in, please leave a comment, or send me an email:
