Utopia Talk / Politics / They think I have a tumor
Habebe
Member | Fri Feb 14 23:50:09 So, I know, I've sounded a little unwell lately. Just an update. I'm waiting to see a specialist, but it's very likely a brain tumor putting pressure on my frontoral lobe. A PET-ct scan and a neurological exam. |

Member | Sat Feb 15 00:07:25 Kind of worrying, but oddly calming at the same time. |

Member | Sat Feb 15 04:28:59 My grandson in law has had two surgeries to remove as much of the tumor as possible. Both times it sems they can't remove it all. Benign but still worrying. Hope you pull through. |

Member | Sat Feb 15 05:40:40 Hopefully it's something they can alleviate. I'm glad you're getting medical care. |

Member | Sat Feb 15 07:25:17 He will be in debt. That is the American way. What we do is tell the hospital what we can afford to pay them on a monthly basis. They can't refuse the effort. We haven't got the sense to get universal healthcare. |

Member | Sat Feb 15 08:27:47 Well, an american friend who lives in Sweden who comes from a Trump family and says he can never move back to Sweden defends Americans by saying that we Europeans dont realize how much they are subject to massive propaganda |

iChihuaha | Sat Feb 15 13:23:16 I am not sure if this was a typo, but I talked to habebe today and there is no ”they”, as in no medical professional has either disgnosed him or said that they suspect it is a tumor There is a plan and it involves moving to another state, joining a rehab and there get a CT or MRI or whatever is needed so he can check that off if only for his own peace of mind. He has a friend in this other state who is able to be supportive in person and get habebe into work after he has finished rehab. I am writting that here so we can hold him accountable to this plan <3 and not stray. Monday he plans to call the rehab manager and talk about joining the program. Habebe has a very active mind and obviously distracted and distressed right now thus making it more difficult to stay on one track. |

Member | Sat Feb 15 18:10:08 I figure a CT scan would be easiest to get. PET-ct would be proffered, but more difficult. It has the ability to rule out multiple possibilities and does bo harm. |

Member | Sat Feb 15 23:45:48 da one thing u seeminly avoided talkin here, which is price. how much this shit costs do u now agree it is long scam. a SCAM |
Habebe
Member | Sun Feb 16 06:03:40 Tc, Price of what? Hypothetically if it's a BCI, they really are not as expensive as you think. They have more advanced ones than this for $5k. Honestly, it's possibly a speech synthesizer or something. Or a tumor etc. Whatever it is, a neurologist will be able to figure it out. |

Member | Sun Feb 16 08:51:30 Cost isn't a primary concern right now. Healthcare costs sometimes lead to bankruptcy, but untreated mental health issues (particularly schizophrenia) often lead to homelessness or prison or worse. |

Member | Wed Feb 19 00:34:39 Good luck. The good news is you now what is wrong and have a plan to deal with it. |
Habebe
Member | Wed Feb 19 09:06:11 Before you told me all this I messaged habebe's sister asking if HABEBE was ok I won’t say anything but I truly feel like expressing my thoughts but I’ll keep quite don’t want you to have the face the music ------ This was a message from my cousin to my mom a few days ago.... Except I switched out the names.... |

Member | Wed Feb 19 12:19:20 Habebe: You're not going to figure this out on your own. You're trying to make sense of things with a brain that is malfunctioning. Please see a doctor. |

iChihuaha | Wed Feb 19 15:43:47 We had a deal about rehab out of state. Where are we on that? |
Habebe
Member | Thu Feb 20 01:00:35 Nimatzo, I want to go, I don't have the money. Ive come to the conclusion that, it is brain malfunction of some sort. The good news is, that's treatable in theory. The voices can't logically be real. The rehab will give me a full physical if I can get there. I'm sobre still, but, maybe a mix of stress, and drugs made something snap and damaged my prefrontal lobe. It sounds odd, but I find this comforting. |
Habebe
Member | Thu Feb 20 01:13:37 I want to thank Utopia politics for everything. I really appreciate everyone here. This has been a confusing and worrisome time. |

iChihuaha | Thu Feb 20 02:16:49 Why can't you get on X and is the money for the train ticket? |

Member | Sat Feb 22 12:50:20 Update Starting a new job soon, alotnof my real world friends keep wanting me to just go to a local rehab, and seem to think it's a waste of time to try to see a neurologist. I'm still sobre, turned it down in front of me and free, no desire to get high, just cigs. Gonna save up, move north, and get better medical treatment. I also have an appointment with my PCP to get a referral to a neurologist, which ever cones sooner. Thanks again everyone for all your support. |

iChihuaha | Sun Feb 23 02:14:47 Habebe You probably need to stay away from the people who put frugs in front of you. Willpower or whatever have you, is not anninfinite resource, one is a bad day away from falling in. Atleast this early. You sound somewhat better, I am glad to hear it. Look at your DMs. |
Habebe
Member | Sun Feb 23 04:25:22 Aside from one slip up, it's been like 2 and half months. But, yeah. |
