Thread: The news I got I wouldn't wish upon anyone!

so sorry to hear this. i wish you the very best.

Thank you, I am not gonna back down. One thing my family always says. well the men anyway, is we have the heart of a lion. So i wish for this. lol

HOLY SHIT!!!!!

keep posting for sure! we will be here man!! are you sure you still want to keep lifting! I say just lay off until your back from your radiation! you have plenty of time to lift in the future!

Sorry to hear your news, but it sounds like you caught it early enough to shut it down. Stay strong, bro.

I mean, God if only i knew what to do. I will see what happens in this thread, and then i will go by that. Lifting is my desire and passion. I mean damn this really blows dogs for quarters.

God speed. I'll keep you in my prayers.

Its sure no fun when somthing like this happens. Have faith, my friend.

thank you all. wow i mean i expected a few posts, but this is wonderfuul. Thank you

Sorry to hear of this. But i agree with your doc. You need to lay off lifting while you are under treatment. Most experiences BBers recommend taking off training at the onset of any illness, even if it is a cold/cough. Cancer is much more serious and you need all your strength to survive. Great that you have the drive to survive. It will go along way towards your recovery. Wish you all the best.

I know. I am glad it is in the early first stage. I mean it 2-3 months i am gonna be back. No stopping me.

I agree with this whole heartedly. Don't train, that's asking for trouble. Good luck and I hope everything goes well.

Ok so i guess no training. 2 months i will start. they said the radiation will be an extremely high level for a shorter time. This way I am not so drawn out and fucked up for a long period. like 6 weeks. then i guess 2-6 weeks to get energy levels back. I wanna keep my weight up tho.Will taking creatine help, or not advised, maybe i will ask her.

Dude, you are 18, get healthy now so you can get stronger later. Most make their best strength gains in their mid-20's anyway. I know I did.

I mean I am pretty damn strong, I just do not want to lose it and have to start over. No training, but i iwll eat very high protein, and fat. I do not care if i gain a lil fat.

Jesus Christ!

I wish you the very best in your recovery. Listen to your doctor as others have said.

hope everything goes well. keep us posted.

Creatine does not help retain/grow mass. It only helps you train harder, simply put. If you are not training, no point in taking it. Besides, your system is under stress anyway. As diff as it may be, try and eat a a well balanced nutritious meal (Veggies+fruits+ good fats..etc) Not just high protein and fat. Your focus presently is surviving this.

Well i alread yeat like that. example. 8oz steak, 2 cups rice, 1 cup brocolli, extra virgin olive oil on the rice.

I realize that it's little consolation, but be thankful it's happening now and not 10 years or more years ago.

If you don't mind me asking, any idea how you got stomach cancer?

Good luck to you!

They said they do not know. I mean when I was like 14, I used to do drugs with friends in cali. I did meth for about 6 months. the way we did it alot was putting it in a pill capsule and gut bombing it. So maybe this. i am glad i havent done drugs since.

Drugs are dumb and i tell everyone to stay away. I mean i did it all through the age 14. It was harsh on me, I could have stopped but it was fun. Now i have a new addiction. My career in bb.

you lost 20lbs from 283 down to 263? You must be one big boy!

There are no words to completly alleviate the anguish you must be feeling. Be encouraged to know that you are not alone in your struggle.

The advancements made in cancer research are tremendous and continuing to advance every day. The fact that they caught it so early is teriffic!

Live_Strong my friend. You can do this!!

I am very sorry to hear of this, I wish you all the best and a full recovery!

Man, Sorry To Hear This I Will Remember U In My Prayers, And Pray For A Complete Recovery. Keep The Faith And Follow Your Doctors Advice.

Get healthy now, and don't worry about working out....
My brother had Lymphatic cancer at 16 and is totaly fine now...
Hope you recover quickly.

on a positive note, a guy I worked with had cancer as well and after a few months of radiation he was tested cancer free! it sounds like they caught it early enough with you so I am sure you will be fine.

I am sure it will go smooth. I was 273 then dropped down to 253, and slowly have worked my way up tp 263, now i am at 259. So i am wanting this shit to be done with. Thursday when i do radiation, they said well you may lose oyur hair, and I was like well I wanna be a bodubuilder, and one way or the other the all lose it. lol. I am just trying to keep spirits up.

Sorry to hear about this man. I have no worries for you because of your positive attitude. I have no doubt in my mind that you'll survive.
