I saw a co worker on Thursday that was back to work after a cancer diagnosis and treatment. He looks well and said he felt great. Initially he went in for a respiratory infection and found out he was full of cancer. The news didn’t sound like he would ever be back to work. 6 months later and he’s in full remission and in high spirits. He said cancer treatments have come a long way. I’d say so after being told you have 6 months to live. I said wow now every day is Christmas. Get well soon Buttermilk! Treat yourself to a new 461 when you’re 100% again
Update. Thanks for the prayers! Good news, the tumor is just fatty tissue and the reason I got so sick was from a heat stroke. Last Tuesday went on a service call at a jub site to work on loader. One of the Forman saw me and asked if I was OK. I said sure. He said you're swaying and sluring your speech. Jokingly I said I wasn't drunk. Then proceed to pass out. Was only out for a second but then my stomach hurt and I threw up. They carried me back to the shop and my wife met me and carried me to the hospital. I didn't even notice what was happening to me. I'm back at work just taking it slow.
Glad you are on the mend & your diagnosis wasn’t worse. Heat strokes are nothing to sneeze at, take it easy for a bit.
Great news. I know first hand what its like to work in extreme heat. Never hit with heat stroke that I'm aware of, but hit with mild heat exhaustion. I wont do strenuous work in high heat anymore. Stay well hydrated and take it slow.
Great news! I had a chunk of fat removed that was thought to be a tumor. It's sure a relief to find out. The most expensive weight loss surgery out.
That was a heck of a scare! Very glad about the final out come. Wish you a speedy recovery and hope you stay hydrated My friend!
