So I've had my biopsy results. My tumour was a stage 3 cancer, which is malignant so reasonably bad. What this means is that to ensure that I fully beat this I will require radio/chemo therapy. Should start that in a few weeks time. But, I've got this.
Somehow, despite being 4 months into my Chemotherapy, I can officially say my hair has grown back! Still a couple of thin patches but hey, I thought I was going to be bald until next year so big win for me.
This is going to be my last health tweet for a while. I wasn't sure if I should tweet about it but I've kept you all up to date so far so... Here goes. TLDR: My brain cancer is incurable. If all goes to plan, the doctors are giving me 10 years to live.
I didn't initially want to tweet about my battle with brain cancer because I didnt want to seem like I was looking for attention (although I totally was). I'm glad I did because the support has been overwhelming and a much needed pick me up, so thank you! ❤
So my brain surgery is scheduled for Feb 7th. If all goes to plan, they should be able to remove enough cancer that I can finally have a life again without much in the way of follow-up treatment. Fingers crossed!
Radiotherapy has left me with a rather... unique hair style. This is what the pinnacle of Male fashion looks like. This is the peak all others can only dream of attaining.
Off for wee spot of brain surgery tomorrow morning. Going to be MIA for a little bit, I will update you all as soon as I'm able, which should be either tomorrow night or Saturday. Wish me luck and I'll be back soon with a kick-ass scar. Love you all ❤
Health update: after many appointments and scans they found a tumour on my brain.
Not the greatest news I've had but it's in an easy to reach place so should only take one operation to get the entire thing out.
