Just got home from chemo about ten minutes ago and, oddly enough,

I usually go to Chipotle when I get out of county

>Just got home from chemo
I am very sorey for hearing about your health problems so please just eat fresh veggies and protein dense,lean.meat instead of chain restaurant garbage.

Steamed/boiled cabbage is amazballs with white vinegar.

>>7914598
This begs the question of what you did to go to county in the first place.

>>7914608
Aw thanks.

>steamed/boiled cabbage with white vinegar
I eat something similar fairly regularly, actually: blanched-and-shocked, split Brussels sprouts with balsamic vinaigrette. Or green cabbage. Or broccoli. Whichever I happen to have (and I always have at least one of the three in the house at all times).
My usual diet is veggie-rich. I don't eat much meat to begin with, but lack the energy for doing much else besides splitting a length of pan sobao and stuffing it with roast beef slices, which is what I'm eating right now. With mayo and swiss, of course.

>>7914588
Yikes bro, what'd you come down with?

Also I recommend mozzarella sticks

>>7914640
Stage 1 bladder cancer. Caught early, so the treatment is pretty mild, which might be why I'm not feeling as nauseous as when I was treated for NHL a few years back.
It was weird. They put the chemo directly into the bladder rather than in the bloodstream and cover your junk with warming blankets. 9/10 Japanese (her first name was Eriko) nurse was handling my dick to put in the catheter.
It's not as sexy as it sounds, though she was really hot.

Also, I fucking love me some mozzdicks.

>>7914739
Sorry about that man, I'll have a drink for you, and glad you're not too banged up. Did it burn when you peed or something for you to get it checked out?

>>7914739
Glad you aren't too fucked, anon. Get some comfy man soup, like chicken noodle or some shit.

all the best senpai <3

>>7914588
last time i was put under it took them 4 tries to do it. when i woke up i wanted bbq ribs from texas roadhouse with loaded steak fries mixed in and a threeway with my wife and nurse. I was even polite enough to say we could watch asian porn if they wanted. I was a bit on the groggy side and the wife told the nurse those comments are normal from me. Thats why I married her damn good wife.

Everything happens for a realize, your chemo is part of GOD's plan for you. He will guide you and He will let you know when you need to eat and when you shouldn't. The doctors will probably tell you to give up hope and that you shouldn't eat but that's a load of bs. You SHOULD eat if you can and just put faith in God that you will survive your chemo. I'm praying for you. You got cancer for a reason, I hope you figure out that reason; it'll lead you closer to God!

I'm undergoing chemotherapy too. Won't you be neutropenic(low white blood cell count) so you can't eat raw foods like uncooked salads and stuff?

>>7915103
I was already on immunosuppressive therapy for something else, so I'm always neutropaenic. Still, I had a salad as described in >>7914634
going with green cabbage. Nuked a half cup of water, added some torn up cabbage leaves, nuked a minute more, drained and washed in cold running water to shock, then back into a container with some olive oil, salt, mustard and balsamic vinegar and shaken to coat. Was good.

>>7915081
I survived chemo seven years ago and I'll survive it now. Thanks for the trollish-sounding encouragement, though.

>>7915036
One time, I went under for a kidney biopsy. Usually they do those while you're awake. They punch through your lower back to your kidney and you just hold your breath as they do so because your kidneys move with each inhalation. At the time, I couldn't hold my breath long enough because reasons, so they had to put me under and go through a PICC line for it somehow. I'm not a doctor, so I don't know exactly how it was done.
When I woke up, I remember having the distinct taste of Jimmy Dean sage sausage in my mouth which was weird because I'd had no sausage.

>>7914843
>>7914840
Thanks. Sorry for the delay, but I went for a nap.

>>7914836
In October, I was pissing blood, but when I had CT and US, they could find nothing unusual in my kidneys (I have a history of kidney disease). So I went for a cystoscopy, which is where they shove a camera up your dick, and they found stage 0 cancer (which I didn't know was a thing). Stage 0 is so early, they can literally scrape the cancer out of you, which they did. Then they pump your bladder full of water and drain it over and over again.

I had another cystoscopy two weeks ago to check up, and the cancer was back and at stage 1 this time. Too large to scrape, yet too small for excision. So the next week, my med team and I discussed the best treatment options, picked one and here I am.

>>7914588
How do you get cancer? I kinda want to die so I'm pressured into doing all the fun shit in my life really fast and not having to put up with this stupid shit anymore.
Fuck Earth, and to hell with the sun.
>Kinda serious though

>>7914588
If it's your first chemo, I'd recommend something simple, light, and something you could live with not liking anymore. If you don't know yet if the chemo will make you puke, eating a favorite food and puking it up may make you unable to stomach it again, so take that into consideration until you get a feel for your side effects.

Best of luck to you, eat well, and stay strong.

>>7914588
God speed and good luck.

I'd got with some easy to digest and nutritious just in case. Smoothie, healthy shake thing, unhealthy shake thing like nutrament.

Nutrament is kind of godly when you're too sick to eat but need calories/nutrition.

had open heart surgery. i wasn't eating anything before because of my heart condition fucking me up. so i lost 40 lbs in about a month.

two days after surgery it was like a light switch went on in my stomach. i was ravenous, but only a few things i wanted. i was malnourished because of the rapid weight loss, so the docs said i could eat whatever i wanted and that we'd do a heart diet later. the one thing i wanted more than anything was mexican refried beans and rice. and orange soda. i couldn't get enough.

I went a little crazy when I joined the US Navy, and ended up catching HIV. I didn't know about it till just two years ago, four yeara after I left the Navy. I was healthy and my immune system was still strong. Got on anti HIV meds but I stopped cause of some confusion with my health insurance, been off of them for a year now but I feel fine but I am worried about it. Not sexually active at all.and really no interest.

What kind of things do you guys do to with spinach to spice it up?

>>7914588
God bless for whatever it's worth man. I wish you luck.
Eat light for now, basic foods. Even if you think you can overdo it, I wouldn't try

>>7915476
had to bottom for the first time in the navy showers as part of hazing.

>this faggot tries to mock OP by posting six sentences that have nothing to do with what he's asking, then a seventh, which is a food-related question unrelated to his previous diatribe
Good job. You're a cunt. I hope you actually do have HIV and it develops into AIDS soon and you die so you can stop shitposting to /ck/.

PS: no one will miss you if you did

Jesus Christ you are beyond help. Kill yourself

>>7915508
It wasn't a gay thing as much as it was about bonding. Everyone had to do it at one point or another I don't regret it. They do it in the army and the marines too sometimes but not as much as the Navy does it.

>>7915529
Not hating on people with cancer or AIDS. I'm hating on shitposting trolls like >>7915463 who doesn't actually have HIV. I hope he gets antibiotic resistant typhus.

Thanks OP. I'm really struggling to enjoy food during chemo. I'll try to make that when I get discharged in 2 months time. Cheers. Been wanting some salad with olive oil and vinegar too

>>7914588
One word for appetite loss/nausea: Marijuana. If not smoked, eaten, or if not that, get some Charlotte's Web CBD oil.

If I were you I'd smoke before I even thought of eating.

>>7916771
Huh?

>>7916771
Weed's illegal where I live, bro. And I can't smoke it anyway due to diminished lung capacity. And edibles always taste like crap. Plus, thankfully, no nausea or appetite loss this time round.

>>7916099
Welcome. Broccoli salad is a favourite. I eat it pretty often.

>>7915483
Thanks! I'll keep that in mind.

>>7915473
Not a native English speaker. It's not 'begging the question' you mean? Or are the two phrases begging/raising used in different circumstances?

>>7915468
Oh you.

>>7915401
Yikes. I'm assuming you're around the same age as the rest of us here, so having heart surgery that young is awful. Glad you've pulled through.

>>7915276
Thanks, Anon. I have a few bottles of Green Goodness in the fridge right now.

>>7915247
I had chemo a few years back to treat NHL, so this ain't my first rodeo. The only thing I could eat back then were plain Cheerios. In water. It was awful. The nausea was constant otherwise, but I didn't grow to hate any of the other foods I tried to eat in the interrim.

>>7915246
Dying is not nice.
As for how I got it, not really sure. Just happened, is all. However, some speculate a link bladder cancer and exposure to cigarette smoke, though. Which is odd. You wouldn't think cigarettes would cause cancer anywhere else besides lungs/throat, but I guess it can fuck a lot of things up.
My mother's a chain-smoker and is the only person in her family to smoke at all, so exposure to that as a child may have contributed to it.

>>7915246
Just look up carcinogens

>>7915237
...

Is that guy serious? "Oh god gave you cancer!!!" What a retard.

>>7917536
You mentioned brussels sprouts. If I'm not mistaken those are actually carcinogenic. Besides that, maybe some steamed carrots and green beans will work good? Also blanched green vegetables like spinach and gai lan (Chinese thing). In terms of easy to digest, soup always is a good option. Also congee.

>>7915237
How old are you? Just curious.

Thanks for sharing. I had melanoma during my teens but haven't seen anything in years. I know it's gonna get me in the lungs or bowel or something one of these days, though.

my father recently passed away from cancerous tumor on his brainstem.

chemo didnt make him nauseous but all he ever wanted to eat was candy and ice cream

>>7920386
I've found no mentions of Brussels sprouts having any link to causing cancer. All I could find is clickbait snake-oil salesmen saying that they're a "cancer fighting superfood!!!" Which is just dumb.

>>7920845
Yeah. Sausage. Jimmy Dean sausage. His delicious, delicious sausage. All up in my mouth hole. Yup.

>>7920905
Ha! I'm wondering if this was just kismet in action or if you remember me from that thread.
Yeah: no McDo for me, thanks.

Eric Lindross and the rest of the 1996 Flyers team raped my entire family once. No amount of therapy will ever make that not hot.

Sorry to hear, bro. Won't offer the typical platitudes, but hoping he led a good life and you guys had the opportunity to celebrate it.

>>7922217
thanks man, i actually havent even told most of my friends because i dont want to go over those platitudes. He had a good life, not perfect but whose is?
I wish the best for you

>>7914588
remember to drink a lot of water.

>>7914588

Good for you. I'd go for some kind of broth, like that bone broth which has become popular, or miso soup from the Japanese aisle in the market.

Hang in there

>>7922834
Iced tea okay?

>cancer-fighting superfood

I read an article a while back about how our present obsession with anti-oxidants can be somewhat hazardous for cancer patients. That is, when it comes to cancer patients megadosing on supplements/vitamins with anti-oxidative properties, or perhaps even those who gorge on 'superfoods.'

Basically, if I understand it correctly, anti-oxidants prevent cell damage from free radicals. Unfortunately, they offer that same protection to cancerous cells.

>>7924642
I wouldn't be surprised but on the other hand...
Ehh.
Listen to your body OP, my mama always told me to do that. If it wants red meat, give it red meat. If it wants cottage cheese, give it that. Anything relatively unprocessed.
