For the past few months, I have been seeing the oncologist monthly.
The PET scan on early Jan showed hot spot on the liver. So during the meet-up with the doctor on early Feb, he asked me to go for another round of Radio-Frequency Ablation(RFA). Hospitalized on the same day Feb 4, the procedure was performed on the afternoon. General anesthetic was applied. I woke up some 45 minutes later. The after effect of the GA - the nausea feeling - was more pronounced this time. And the pain on the upper stomach area lasted longer than previous round. I was feeling quite lousy for the next few hours, tossing and turning on the bed. 4 hours after the procedure, the nurse gave some pain killer through injection, it relieved much of the pain and I was able to sleep.
Then it was CNY, grateful that I could fly back to hometown and celebrated with my family.
During the routine check-up this month, the blood test report was good. The doctor decided to put back Erbitux, which is an epidermal growth factor receptor (EGFR) inhibitor. This in administered intravenously, and takes about 1 hour each session, once every fortnightly. There is no side effect from this, other than having a lot of pimples (so I feel young again:)). The doctor has seen very positive results with this on other patients.
Meantime, I have been attending Miracle Service at the church, or watching it online over the internet(www.lighthouse.org.sg/tv.html, every Saturday at 7pm ; GMT+8). There are cases of miracle healing with advanced stage of cancers among other diseases, it is really amazing to hear of these healing. Even our family doctor also talked about miracle healing during a recent visit.
This being the colorectal cancer awareness month, it is probably good to have some knowledge of the disease,and cancer in general. Some good practices like:
Take care of our health.
Have a balanced life. Avoid stress
Exercise regularly.
Have regular check-up.
Some of the common symptoms are available on the link below:

Some doctors advocate that individual needs to know this well, and take early action if there is anything amiss
Also, review our medical insurance. The medical treatment cost could be substantial. My wish is nobody would need to utilize it. However, always be on the safe side.

Ps31 In you, O Lord, do I take refuge;
let me never be put to shame;
in your righteousness deliver me!
2 Incline your ear to me;
rescue me speedily!
Be a rock of refuge for me,
a strong fortress to save me!

Be a rock of refuge for me,
a strong fortress to save me!
3 For you are my rock and my fortress;
and for your name's sake you lead me and guide me;
and for your name's sake you lead me and guide me;

Psa 31:2 求你侧耳而听，快快救我！作我坚固的磐石，拯救我的保障！
Psa 31:3 因为你是我的岩石，我的山寨；所以，求你为你名的缘故引导我，指点我。
