The Road to Cancer.

   So I guess I should start at the very beginning. In January of 2016 I wasn't feeling quite...myself. It began with a few head colds with the usual symptoms followed by lethargy, all through to March which was when I began getting night sweats. After a few weeks of those and some time in between I began developing a pain in my chest. Similar to what I would explain as a heart attack. Now I'm not silly, I know I wasn't having a heart attack... but I was experiencing an awful pain about which nothing could be done. About two weeks of having the chest pain go by and then the pain suddenly starts in my right abdomen and lessens in my chest. In mid July some family came on their yearly visit, a week in to their visit I'm having the health issues still. A lymph node comes up towards the base of my neck on the right side a week in to their visit, the next day we go to urgent care to get it checked. A run of antibiotics, and a few tests, scans, and a biopsy on a piece of a lymph node later and... I have cancer. Hodgkins lymphoma. Stage...3.
