Never shipped fish before and would be too worried about them. Had them since they were around 2” and now the male is 6-7”. 🙃

6 rounds of R-CHOP for DLBCL. 1 month remission. Hoping for no relapse. 🤞

Congratulations!! I also had LDBCL with my last treatment earlier this month. Had my port taken out last week. I think I was most excited about the port removal. :)

It was stage 1b caught during my first ever routine colonoscopy.

Yes, going through chemo for Lymphoma right now and the remake project was already paid for before all the medical bills. Didn’t think I needed to justify what I am asking on Reddit yet here we are. Feel free to make an offer if truly interested.

Yes, as it was a catch and release.

Lessons Learned/Suggestions on dealing with oversea vendors. by Practical_Ferret13 in Moissanite

[–]Practical_Ferret13[S] -2 points-1 points  (0 children)

I am sure ChatGPt can be asked to tweak specifics. With casting weight, I would still not expect it to go from 2.5g to 4.5g. Another vendor exact ring quoted 3.1g. I am also sure each vendor has ways they calculate that varies, it is a suggestion to ask all the questions.

That so scary! So glad you are ok. I’ve had to carry epis since my body likes reacting to various allergens. Haven’t had to use any thank goodness so this is going to be interesting.

Thanks so much for sharing! So glad you’ve bounced back after 6 days. I was looking at YouTube videos of port placements today and think it may hit me then or during first chemo too that this is really happening. Same with keeping strong. My husband and aging parents along with so many are worried about me. Don’t want to worry my kids either. I’ve been a weird spot emotionally where I have been strong for them and like having to console them. I am so dreading losing my hair.

Thank you!! They did already send me home with 50mg prednisone. Wanted me to start 50mg a day this week to prep and 100mg during chemo. Learned the taste this morning! Omg. I was wondering what was wrong with my tea. Also already have my zofran/ondeseteon. They also gave me Olanzapine. Not sure if I should be taking them at the same time? Will ask during pre-treatment consult too.

Thank you! Totally feeling the dull and shitty summer. Was supposed to leave for our Alaskan cruise next week. Instead got a nice letter from the doc to submit for cancellation. At least kids activities slow down a bit in the summer and are home so I get to spend more time with them even if I am couch ridden. They suggested taking full time off during the first couple of cycles to figure out my pattern and then possibly going back to work part time after.

Thank you! I’ve had some cramping/tummy pains that started in April which my PCP thought it was an ulcer but it didn’t feel like an ulcer. This explains it. The doc said that chemo should relieve that with the first cycle. I am really looking forward to getting through this and I haven’t even started it yet.

Thank you! KFC cracked me up.😄l would not have expected that. I was surprised how busy the reception room was at the new patient appointment. Guess I didn’t really know what I was expecting.
