    Cancerchondria and it's kissing cousin internetochondria. That's when you search your (usually mild) symptom on the internet and find you're suffering from some rare disease that only four people in history have ever had.😏 Unfortunately I know a number of people with this malady.

    Ykyacp when you take a medication to battle the side effects of another medication, which was itself prescribed to help with the side effects of yet another medication. Then you forget what you were taking the initial med for in the first place 🤔

    You know you are a cancer patient when you don't have the strength in your arm to blow wave your own hair becuse the tumor is pressing on your nerves and then it hits you... I won't have this problem when my treatment starts again-

    YKYACP when your hairless nose drips so much and so often that every pocket and purse you own have wadded up tissues in them.

    When one of your first thoughts after getting a de novo stage iv diagnosis is - "at least Alzheimers is off the table, now". Or, one of your first comments to the bs after getting the dx is - "yes, that's great, I understand that, but can you tell me why I have no appetite and can't eat"?
