I start round two chemo today. Looking forward to killing some cancer, but not so much everything else. I have been fasting for 48 hours. It is supposed to help with side effects as well as make the cancer cells unstable. Your healthy cells go into a kind of dormant state and will feed off the stored energy in your body. Cancer cells cannot do this. They need a fuel source and this lack of fuel causes them to be unstable, thus making them more vulnerable to chemotherapy. At least this is what I read on one of many studies. It is American Thanksgiving today. Go Detroit!
