It does, yes, but you wouldn't have posted this thread if you didn't want to talk about it, so stop pretending not to care and tell us what's up.

They have been testing my liver and kidneys amongst other things... the nurse tested something else.

They dont think it looks good for the liver sadly and basically told me surgery ain't an option, just exercise like mad and get super fit..... and that MIGHT work, or otherwise I will just die with washboard abs.

I laughed when the Indian Doctor told me I could put myself to good use and be a suicide bomber!!

[McJim]

I used to drink my age in pints and smoked 60 ciggies a day.

I'll have a glass of wine or two beers once a month and I haven't smoked since May 2006.

As you said to me, and so many others did... doctors tell you the worst case possible. You're not going to die!! Just look after yourself and make sure you make sensible decisions from now on and you will live a long and happy life.
I guess in a way you are lucky not to have to have surgery

Having any chance is all I need to know to go for it and beat it. Odds are made to be beaten.... you know that about me my friend. I never give up and a "slight chance you could improve it" is all I needed to hear.

And, if they hadn't of scared you then you wouldn't be as motivated to get fit and healthy.

But mate, all I can say, is that you'd be surprised how well the human body fights back if it's given a fighting chance. Your doctor has given your body that fighting chance, and with your change in lifestyle you can prove to your doctor how much you can turn things around. Just remember: this is a life decision, not a new year's resolution you never really intend to keep. No slips are permitted. This time, we're playing for keeps. Remember that, and stay strong bud. :rockon:

1)Mope about and feel sorry.

2)Get over it and beat the shit out of it.

Take it from me easier to say fuck this shit,i'll fight it and live than give up.

I was given 17days from scan to surgery to get my head around my health probs (bowell cancer),surgeon said no chemo probably as operation will remove tumour.
After surgery and biopsy of tumour it was reccomended chemo be undertaken,also said i'd have been dead within 6-8 weeks as cancer was so severe.

Now..... be positive matey. You have one life... no second chances..unless you believe in reincarnation.. (and I am not sure what you want to come back is (other thread).... if its a g-string will make sure its not mine ;)), so do everything you can think of to make the rest of your life the best it can be. Make some changes.. stop drinking soo much, ride you bike a bit more, excercise, go swimming, join the gym... give up smoking (if you smoke that is). When you come down to the Rapa Rumble you can take out your frustrations on Colapop... and instead of buying me a wine.. get some grape juice.

Hopefully its just a lifestyle change aye.. best of luck!

I have a bit of a gym set up in the garage which has been getting used regularly.

You have an amazingly positive attitude. Thinking of you. Life without alcohol aint too bad at all!! If that is one of the scenarios!! I had to laugh when I was told by a Nurse after having blood tests done - oh you better lessen your alcohol intake - hadn't touched the stuff for 5 years then!! It is absolutely amazing what the body can handle. It's god damned amazing piece of machinery really!! Loved what the indy dr said.

All the best.

I can't top any of that but sort of know how it goes. Type 1 diabetes? Stats show it will result in a third less life expectancy meaning - well you do the math! Saving for a long retirement?? Um??

Anyway - my attitude has always been 'the hell you say' and I changed my life. Its working slower than I'd like but it's working and I don't believe half of what the medicos tell me.

Go for the fitness thing - get some help (trainer) you trust and go for it. Life is a fragile thing and you need to make sure you live it and not wait for a better day. GO FOR IT!

Theres a girl who knows what she wants/likes.

[janno]

Hey Toaster,

to answer your original question - yes.

But I wasn't given the option of lifestyle changes to fix myself. So you are in a good place, believe it or not.

Along with all the good advice everyone has given you, I'd add either yoga and/or counselling with someone you get on with.

Sounds hippy, trippy bullshit but if you learn how to calm your mind and give it a total, peaceful rest for half an hour a day, you will be astounded at how much more of a chance you give yourself to heal.

Plus holding on to negativity, anger or fear makes any illness worse. Dump all that shit on someone else - it's what you are paying for!!

I am a total skeptic when it comes to this sort of stuff but I've proved to myself and seen it in others, it makes a huge difference to your health and of course the people you live with. Support groups can be a pain in the arse though, bunch of sick people sitting around whingeing. (Though they really help some people - each to their own.)

And transplants are a piece of piss, by the way. Because you can live pretty much a similar lifestyle to before, when they are going well.

[KATWYN]

As you said to me, and so many others did... doctors tell you the worst case possible. You're not going to die!!

Its like the witch doctor "bone pointing" practice aye, if they point the bone and you believe it.......you will die. (a physiological response in the body happens apparently...something to do with excess stress hormones releasing into the blood stream at the shock of impending doom)

Take charge Toaster, listen to what you have to do to get better.......and concentrate on that.

For what its worth, reading your posts I thought you were quite a bit younger than 35 (i.e., 20's) so you have a young out look - that has to be good

[buellbabe]

Well I have never been given the gone-bugers speech but my best friend has recently been diagnosed with HEPC (she caught it thru a botched medical procedure...long story) and she was spiralling into a pit of despair...

I told her to look on the bright side.

Whats that she asked

well, I says, you know you have it so you have got the opportunity to change your lifestyle and prevent the virus from taking over and killing yr liver.

On a sadder note, one of my very oldest friends is losing his battle with cancer and there is no point in sugar coating things.
I am going to see him this weekend and we will be discussing what he wants for a funeral/memorial etc...

I reckon getting bad news sux but at least ya know what you are up against and can put up a decent fight.

Hang in there Toaster...:yes::sunny:

To all the posters thanks for the efforts made. I am still slowly repping in thanks... keep running out of juice to do it in one go. I will get there though.

To be honest I had a shocker today. Just got home after getting out for a while to think about it. Shit this place is quiet... and dark. Anyway, enough bollocks from me.

[Street Gerbil]

Dude, you have no idea what kind of abuse human body can withstand when one is determined. Just a word of advice: do not accidentally cause additional harm by working out improperly. Things to protect are kneecaps (can be injured by unbalanced running/cycling), testicular cords or whatever they are called (typical repetitive stress injury if you don't wear tight underwear while working out), and elbow joints (from misguided weight lifting). Take a balanced approach, try to do as much cross training as you do weightlifting and eat right.
The good thing is that at some stage endorphines kick in making workouts enjoyable. After a couple of months you'll become an athletics junkie, feeling sore if you have to miss a run or a session in the gym.
I don't wish good luck - luck hasn't got anything to do with it. Only determination. You've got a fighting chance - use it well.

maybe you and BuFfy can have a competition to see who gets the house and cars.... if your lucky you might get shares in my apartment too.

[Curious_AJ]

ooooh apartment!!!

[Toaster]

ooooh apartment!!!

I am so not telling you where that is! Or my home. You might become a squatter!!

[Toaster]

Something really interesting has happened after doing all this. It has opened up chats with others going through their own experiences. I have really appreciated thet input of so many. Going through the messages and PM's has been very humbling and incredibly supportive.

Sadly I got further bad news this Friday about some tests, but I still see a way through it all if I give it all I can. Thanks to those of you telling me your stories. These are of course in confidence and I really do appreciate your openess in reaching out to someone most of you have never met.

I hope we meet someday. Some I might meet tomorrow on the cruiser ride.... which is actually open to any bikes... as long as they remember we cruise and not race. Bring on the fine weather!

[Stickchick]

Dude that sucks!!!! Chin up and you sound like a strong person so you will fight with all you have.

[inlinefour]

.... by a Doctor that if things don't improve very soon they will most likely be goneburgers?

Kinda takes the fun outta your day. Not what I wanted to hear at 35.

Ranty dribble over... where are my hard pills?

Got told by a consultant that if I did not stop coming off motorcross bikes like I did that I would be goneburger. However as I can't get my arse on the CR anymore, thats an easy thing to sort out. I've had my hard pills for the morning, I have a few spare if you really need them, but they are a bit hard on the stomach.

Nah really Toaster, you probably know that you need to make the changes, quite possibly common sense stuff? I'm sure your quality of life will improve alot more than you think too. As for taking the fun outta your day. Well you might have to be like me and look at new fun things that you can do and forget the stuff that is part of the problem. I've got a couple of BB guns off trade me. BB guns at 10 paces? I no longer mind putting up with a little pain from stuff like that as compared to the back pain, its nothing.:mellow:

[scumdog]

Just a tad. I have a chance to sort it out, just not the best odds. Which really pissed me off.

Tough info to digest I'd say, still, once you know what 'IT' is you can deal with 'IT', - it's the unknown that really preys on the mind eh?

Keep your chin up and don't get into a negative spiral my man, you can't ride a bike on a negative spiral!!

[BuFfY]

maybe you and BuFfy can have a competition to see who gets the house and cars.... if your lucky you might get shares in my apartment too.

Nahhh I get them! I already told you that! Don't be an indian giver now!

[Edbear]

Is that the anti-clockwise, or clockwise spiral?:confused:

[Daffyd]

Just caught this thread...Hang in there, buddy.

[janno]

Oh Poohs Toaster.

Do your best, that's all you can ask of yourself. I'm really sorry to hear it's more bad news but you've got a ton of support here on KB to draw on, by the looks of things.

Here's a virtual hug from Brisbane. (So it's a nice, sunny one!)

Thanks mate... Yeah I have never enjoyed riding a bike downhill for some reason.

[Curious_AJ]

ok, i'll settle for the apartment and buffy can have the cars and house... or ill just settle for a car... ^_^ love you toaster!

[janno]

Yeah, rub it in...!:bleh:

god - don't get me started about friggin sunny skies. I've said it before and I'll say it again. Nothing but blue skies and sunshine is like eating icecream for breakfast. Lovely for the first week, but after that you're hanging out for some decent porridge.

I hope the weather is total shite when I get back to New Plymouth mid August. I haven't had 'orrible weather for about four years and it's driving me spare!!

Please feel free to remind me of this statement when I am bitching about freezing my arse off at the Cold Kiwi.

[Toaster]

BB guns at 10 paces? I no longer mind putting up with a little pain from stuff like that as compared to the back pain, its nothing.:mellow:

You do realise I am a jackass and would actually do that. I have an air rifle and bow and arrows too if you want to up the stakes! :gob:

air rifle fights are fun but getting hit in the ear hurts like a m*****fucker.

[Toaster]

Possibly as sore as a dart in the achillies heel, or a baseball bat in the nuts. I am just glad them boys still work!

[inlinefour]

You do realise I am a jackass and would actually do that. I have an air rifle and bow and arrows too if you want to up the stakes! :gob:

I also have a target high powered air pistol. I'm keen as long as we stay at the 10 paces. Can start with the BB guns, but I will get bored quickly with those and take a shot with the air pistol. The bow and arrows I will have to take a miss as there is no way I could use them. Ask anyone who know me, I'd do it also, I shit you not. I was asked if the BB guns hurt the other day when they arrived. So I shot myself in the side of the head at point blank range to see. Gave my friend who asked the question quite a scare, or so she said. :innocent:

I will never forget the freak accident in which my friend got accidentally shot in the arm by his roommate while playing Doom (his roommate worked as a security guard). He later said that enjoyed the game but really didn't expect THAT degree of realism.

These are fine words my man and ones that you have to remember. Stay positive:grouphug:

Oh I know.... but your shovel ain't big enough for me baby. You gotta try harder than that.

You have heard, that the best thing to do each morning is to eat a live frog???
After that, the day can only get better!

[kelleyb]

North American.
And it's actually a slight on the part of the gov't as we would sign treaties with the tribes and then completely screw them over.
Ie. Sign a treaty giving them heaps of land and then letting settlers just move right in.
(fun fact of the day!)
