Patient Just got diagnosed

This weekend was absolute chaos and clusterfuck. I went to the ER on Saturday for what I thought was a persistent stomach bug.

After a CAT scan of my stomach and a battery of tests this weekend, I was diagnosed with stage 4 metastatic cancer.

They did a biopsy Sunday, to see if they can determine where the cancer is coming from.

I also have another CAT scan coming up to see if it has expanded into my chest and lungs.

I really have no idea what I'm looking for, I'm still trying to process all this.

Also, I am a Satanist for a reason, so please save all the "just give it to God" or etc bc it's not something I personally believe in.

So sorry for what you're going through.

I have a rare and aggressive form of cancer, and though I feel it comes from a good place, I don't like when people talk about god etc. either. If god is real he enabled people to get this disease, including kids.

It drives me nuts. Some people are forceful about it. I'm a Buddhist, not a Christian.
