Re: Bladder Cancer symptoms gone after fast, but Urologist thinks I'm crazy.
Yes bundling up and drinking hot water sounds good. However, I drive a cab at night and I do bundle up during the winter but customers frequently roll down the windows and rain, snow, sleet are uncontrollable variables.
I have not felt this good in years. I sleep soundly and have no irritations associated with Bladder Cancer. These symptoms are involuntary. I learned as an Emergency Medical Technician years ago that symptoms are the body's natural way of telling you something is wrong. Well, my body is not sending me any messages right now except that without any symptoms that my body is in good health.
I've fasted and survived it, it is cancer which is new to me.
However, I am fortunate among many who are not open minded enough to even consider fasting.
Is it ironic that religions show followers fasting? Yet because their own faith that they can attain this state and resist temptation is weak then they never try fasting at least in Christianity.
Muslims fast but the extent to which they are able to eat at sunset? Hindus, appear to fast for holidays. Of their fasting practices I would like to know more.
In the weeks of the fast to come I must somehow put food out of my mind. I know I will not be psychically hungry but the preoccupation of thoughts of food I feel must be meditated out of mind.
I suppose I could try Transcendental Meditation daily to strengthen my resistance. I have a book on it which I have not read for awhile.
As an afterthought, my middle name is Anthony. Carman in Italian means song.
