The only people I see who can't handle chemo are a small number of 80+ year olds who were in poor health to begin with. Most people deal with it just fine, with some extra medication against nausea/pain whenever they need it.

I'm having psychotic breaks with severe joint and abdominal pains with excessive uric acid in my mouth...I'm pretty far from okay.
When will the dreams about having to collection my own feces and escapes from brine-nano-mites diminish?

Those dreams won't stop, they'll just get more intense.
I suggest 2 footrubs and an enema.

You don't need cancer to die early either, Einstein.
There are no alternatives, there is just the who, how, when, and where. "Why" is arbitrary in the case of mortal human beings.

I go in for my second dose of chemo on Friday, everyone wish me luck! I'm going to get pissed, woozy, nauseous, my piss will be red at first then it will have a neon glow like on the skin of fish scales, I'll be anemic, have copious amounts of acid in my mouth that takes 4 days to get rid of, and then keep myself doped up with lorazepan and oxycodon for the joint, nerve, and muscle pains and take milk of magnesia from the constipation caused by the pills and chemo for another 2 weeks. Yipee!!!

Hmm, gay dolphins OK.
btw, my chemo treatment went alright cause I slept through most of it, but afterwards I started getting down and sharp pains began to set it in and I had to fall back asleep after taking some Lorazapan to calm my nerves...just woke up 2 hours later feeling exactly the same, racing thoughts about why, and now I'm eating Life cereal with bananas and 2% milk...lulz. :d

I have a pleural effusion with my cancer. Smoking anything at this point in time is physically out of the question.
Pleural effusion: fluid that has built between the lung and chest wall compressing the lung and restricting air flow.
Sucks, man...

lol, they have already drained 7 liters using thoracentesis. However, due to their being a 6 inch slab of Hodgkins lymphoma cancer being the cause of it accumulating...it builds right back up after a few days. So, yeah, they can (and have 3 times already), but that doesn't stop it from happening again.

The second I heard the story of Jesus, he was in my heart and my soul. Whether or not my logical mind wants to acknowledge his existence beyond that is besides the point.

But I just got a picc line put in my arm today. That's where they take this needle, put it in a vein and feed a small thin tube in close to the heart and I.V. lines hang down from my arm so they can give me drugs and draw blood from the same line. Cool, eh? No more getting stuck with fucking needles!!!!!
Just had my third dose of chemotherapy. This round sucks. My mouth is got this weird film that won't go away unless I eat spicy or sour things, but it just comes right back afterwords. Anyway, I'm off to find out who stole 50 of my oxycodone. :<
It's in the Madagascar periwinkle, which is sometimes available OTC as an herbal supplement. The research checks out pretty well and it's orally bioavailable. Hack your body and reclaim the title as "master of your domain".
Best of luck.

Vinblastine was one of the drugs I was administered at the hospital for chemotherapy; 13mg worth that round. The other three were Doxorubicin 54mg, Bleomycin 22mg, and Dacarbazine 800mg. This last one takes a fucking hour to administer!!! The whole process is about 3-5 hours depending on how fast the nurses move their hot asses.
Now I'm stuck with uric-acid, neulasta shot side-effects (creates neutrophils for immunities) sharp needle like pains everywhere there is bone marrow, abdominal spasms and nausea. Plus my fucking hair is falling out now...I really am a cancer patient now, I'm sporting the token hair style. :P

You can just breath in the smoke if you can get a safe way to have it puffed into the air?

Ended up being folliculitus, which I have because of genetics anyway. Seems to be a side-effect of chemotherapy as well.
This sucks. >_<

Thousands of years ago, the Chinese discovered the proper combinations of herbs to cure and prevent most cancers.
Unfortunately the world will never hear of it, thanks to big Pharma.
