Big drawback to the chemo pills: My bowel movements have turned into goat shits/rabbit pellets/deer droppings/etc. I've had two normal shits in three weeks and that's probably being generous.
Drinking two 8 oz. glasses of prune juice everyday along with 12 oz. of apple juice in an attempt to keep the pellets coming out.
Neurosurgeon and oncologist said I could start working out again, so I went to the gym today. I don't think I'm going to go as full-bore as I was right up until the brain surgery situation, but it was nice to hit the iron again. Although, since I've been putting in 10 hour days at work for the past two weeks I do have to keep an eye on my physical fatigue situation.
I'm also developing a crush on one of my radiation technicians. I'm trying to figure out if making an attempt to bang her is breaking some sort of ehtical medical patient code or not. I'm thinking not.

Glad it's not f'ing your life up bud.
Pay attention to the fatigue. Chemo/radiation are hard on your body and not getting enough rest can put stress on organs that are already under stress and shit.
By the way, all eithical issues are on her end. Swing away.
