My Recovery Journey After Intestinal Tumor Surgery

Why do you fast, does it help?

Did you have to go through chemo? I have a tumor in my small intestine, and I have to go through chemo for 3 months and then they are going to do surgery. How long was rehab after surgery? I’m scared , and worried

I had the surgery, no chemo, fasting causes what’s called autophagy, which you can look up, your body kills all the cells, and replenishes with new. It kills cancer cells. Your lymphatic system then removes all the dead cells. NO SUGAR. Very few carbs. No alcohol.

I know the surgery is a bit daunting, it took me 3 months before I could start doing things. I walked, I ate slow mostly eggs, cottage cheese, tuna fish, no bread no pasta, a little rice, broccoli and chicken breasts. I introduced other foods as I went, some days are good some days are bad.

Wow! I have a journey ahead of me , are u able to work now

Yes. At first u was going to drive a bus, so I had to get a medical driving card, do I had to get signed off by my doctors and do a stress test. Which was actually a good thing to do. I passed, I’m not driving I’m installing electrical devices. So at 4 months I started working again.

Nice! That gives me an idea of what’s coming ahead. I’m glad you are doing good. This is hard and painfull and stressing.

Good thoughts, rebuke the Cancer, stay positive, it’s already leaving the body, wishing you strength and speedy recovery, pray always,🙏💯
