pulmonary emphysema is different from subcutaneous emphysema or pneumatosis coli. I can use specific terms but a simple post on a nonmedical website is not the place for detailed physiology/pathophysiology lessons.
You are missing the point
Not all people with lung cancer will have X or Y or Z symptom.
But if you haved suddenly developed X OR Y OR Z symptom you might want to find out the possible causes.
I dont have the Ovarian cancer gene. Ovarian Cancer runs in my family but none were tested for the gene. You better bet I am watching out for the symptoms and being aggressive when it comes to tests.
I doubt that serious researchers and physicians put much faith in these things.
The highly qualified ‘findings’ just develop popular currency and go out over the world.
And my dad had just the opposite. “Tumors”, “real big” “the size of an orange” “everywhere”. They opened him up and...nothing was there.
Good Lord.
I will say prayers for you.
Constant anxiety can Destroy the body.
And causes lots of pain
Wild story. With a happy ending.
Very true.
Thinking positive, uplifting thoughts, being optimistic, refusing to buy into negativism, can result in a great uplift of mood and resultant benefits to physical health.
Don’t let other people, and their ideas, bring you down. Choose your own way of thinking and believing.
Good for you you have been blessed by God to still be here. Wishing you well and many more years.
I had a friend who had ‘decided’ that she wouldn’t live any longer than her mother did. I don’t know why she believed this; but she developed cancer and died in exactly the timeline that her mother did - died at the same age. She had ‘decided’, by her thinking; and I always think of her death as an unconscious suicide.
She was a good woman in action; but in thought, feeling, and what she chose to dwell upon, she was extremely resentful, full of grudges and hatred for people she felt had wronged her.
I firmly believe that if you harbor resentment and hatred in your thoughts and feelings, you have a much better chance of getting a cancer than even people who eat poorly, smoke, or are exposed to carcinogens, do.
Similar observation with Parkinsons.
They say the if you have your sense of smell, you don’t have Parkinson. If you have lost your sense of smell you are have a good shot of developing or have Parkinsons.
I am 51 and it has been a difficulty all my life.
I was good until my pop died. I was 14 but LOTS of people lose parents without becoming anxious wrecks the rest of their lives :)
One time when i was about 26, I was at a girlfriend’s house with a list of EIGHT symptoms I had to tell the doctor about when I went to see him.
For some reason I said to myself, NONE of these symptoms are real. Well they FEEL real but I’m causing them.
And once I said that and BELIEVED IT, EVERY SINGLE symptom and issue went away in a matter of minutes.
The mind is an incredible thing.
Check out the story of the late MLB Commissioner, A. Bart Giamatti
Oh wow. I wish you the best and hope you pull through.
Thanks everyonr. They tell my I’ll make a full recovery, and I have a great home caregiver. The worst part is the feeding tube.
It’s difficult, and takes a lot of work, to train one’s mind. But we are doing it all the time in the lazy way, unconsciously, without even thinking or realizing the direction in which we ARE training it.
It makes sense to start thinking about it, and to try and consciously direct the paths of our thinking.
My brother made it through liver cancer.
I am glad you are still going and I hope you will be here for a long, long time!
Copied and pasted that for keeping.
Thanks
All you have to do is pay a little bit of attention the first day, a little bit more the next day, etc. :-)
Well a little bit of attention is all I can muster :)
I hate all the fake mental conditions that they come out with but i’ll be darned if I can read more than a few paragraphs before my mind drifts!!
