癌に対する恐れと検査
Welcome to 英語で雑談！Kevin’s English Room Podcast.
Yeah, so, I mean, what makes it easier for me, I guess?
I mean, there's really, I mean, just wish me luck.
Yeah.
That's it. Just send me luck.
Yeah.
And I guess, yeah.
Yeah.
Right.
I will.
Thank you.
Yeah.
Thank you.
Yeah.
I mean, yeah.
Yeah.
But it's not, it's not like life-threatening thing, right?
Yeah, it's not a life-threatening thing.
Yeah.
Yeah.
There's a high chance, there's a high possibility when you start on like, okay.
We'll find out.
It's a little more easy.
Yeah.
So, I mean.
That was a hell of a long week.
Yeah.
I'm gonna tell you.
Imagine that.
It's a hell of a long week.
You tested the CD and everything a week ago.
Was it like Saturday?
Yeah, I mean, I tested it.
Friday?
I tested it Friday.
Friday.
So, yeah, four days, three days ago.
That's a long, long three, four days.
I guess the longest three, four days in your life.
Yeah, I mean, it's been a week and a half since the doctor first told me that I have cyborg night blindness.
Yeah.
So, it's been a long, long week and a half.
I've been thinking about tomorrow every day.
Yeah.
And what I'm gonna eat after that, after they told me that it's nothing.
Yeah.
That's how I'm getting my hopes up now.
Yeah, yeah, yeah.
Let's talk about that.
You decided that?
Yeah.
So, after they told me, after they tell me that, oh, it's just that.
Yeah.
And we're not seeing any, like, I don't know, pain.
And I'm gonna be like, oh.
Yeah.
I'm gonna first appreciate life.
Yeah, of course.
Of course.
You breathe in.
You take a deep, deep breath.
That's right.
I'm gonna take a deep breath.
Yeah.
I'm gonna contact everybody.
Yeah.
You know, who I told them about this.
And then after that, I'm gonna go to Yakiniku.
Oh, yeah.
I'm gonna go to Yakiniku, man.
You should go to one of the best.
Oh, yeah.
Like, I mean, not like, I'm not saying like it's expensive or nothing.
Yeah.
Best for you.
Yeah, you're gonna go to, you know, whatever Yakiniku place that I want.
Yeah.
I'm gonna order any menu that I want.
I'm not even gonna look at the price.
Yeah, yeah.
I'm gonna order anything I want.
That's my plan.
Yeah.
That's my plan, man.
Yeah, yeah, yeah.
Yeah.
Is it Yakiniku?
Not like, well, like pizza, hamburgers.
Yakiniku or.
Mexicans are like tacos and everything.
Yeah, it's Yakiniku.
I don't know why.
It's Yakiniku or like some of those fucking expensive sushi.
Sushi.
That's what I'm gonna do.
Yeah, yeah, yeah.
Yeah.
No.
Not that.
Not that.
Another reason is because after I do the surgery.
Yeah.
I'm scared about this as well.
Like, when I do the surgery, I am not allowed to eat anything for four days.
Okay.
Because, you know, they stitched my daicho.
Yeah.
I can't eat anything for.
You cannot eat anything for four days?
So, five days to be exact.
Okay.
Because one day before the surgery.
The surgery.
Yeah.
One, two, three.
Sorry, four days.
So, that's a total of five days.
Okay, okay.
That you cannot eat anything.
I'm like, what's gonna happen to my weight and my muscle?
Yeah.
You know?
Obviously, you're gonna intake something.
Yeah, I got a tenteki.
But, I mean, what do you think is gonna happen?
Like, if I, like, only tenteki, no food at all.
What do you think is gonna happen?
Like, is everything gonna be like fucking, like, fucking skinny as shit?
And lose all my muscle?
Well, I'm not saying, like, you're gonna, you're gonna lose everything.
But, in general, like, if you're, like, in hospitalized and, you know, somebody from, like, let's skip back from hospitalized.
In general, they tend to, like, be a bit skinny.
Slimmer?
Yeah, a bit skinny.
Okay.
Well, in general.
In general, okay.
Right.
I gotta do something about that.
Yeah.
I don't know if you're already, like, eating healthy.
Uh-huh.
You know.
Well, if you're, like, eating, like, tempuras and karaage and, like, tonkatsu every day.
And, obviously, if you're in the hospital and just eat properly.
Uh-huh.
You, you know.
Lose weight.
Yeah.
But you're already, like, doing a pretty healthy diet.
Yeah, yeah, yeah.
I'm not sure you're gonna, like.
Okay.
Well, I believe so.
Okay.
I'm a little bit concerned about that.
You know.
True, because you can't do, like, weightlifting.
I can't do weightlifting.
Oh, I can't do that.
Yeah.
But I am, I am thinking about bringing my dumbbells.
Don't do that, man.
Do not.
Do not do that, man.
Because.
Yeah.
The thing that I cannot, I shouldn't do.
Okay.
Is put weight on the stomach.
Oh, on the stomach?
Yeah.
Okay.
So, what I can do.
What, I can.
Wait, wait.
I can do my arms without, without putting pressure on my stomach.
I can do it.
Yeah.
Okay.
So, wait, wait.
What do you mean you cannot put the weight on your stomach?
Is it, like, you cannot put, like, the weight on your stomach?
Oh, no, no, no.
You can't flex on your stomach.
I see.
Right?
You can't do push-ups.
You can't lift heavy shit.
Okay.
Because you don't want to use your foot king.
I see.
So, if you use your foot king, I don't exactly know how the logic is behind this, but, like,
well, I mean, it's going to open up again.
Oh, shit.
So, yeah.
Okay.
You shouldn't do it.
Then you shouldn't do that.
Yeah.
And then, so, if it opens up, what's going to happen is, doctor said, the shit's going
to go inside your body, right, instead of coming out.
Yeah.
And that's a pretty, like, bad situation.
Yeah.
You don't, like, directly, your body becomes a fucking toilet.
Right.
Right.
That's a pretty bad situation.
Yeah.
Yeah.
So, I can imagine that's pretty bad.
Yeah.
So, don't want that happening.
Yeah.
My, um, my grandpa.
Okay.
Once did the surgery of those, and everything.
Uh-huh.
As he was really old, um, surgery didn't, I don't know if, what was the, the, the main
reason, but, um, it, I don't know if that was, like, very open, or, like, got a small
hole, or anything, but he went on that situation.
Okay.
And then that makes him being in a hospital longer, and went really wrong, so.
Oh, shit.
So, you, you, you, please, you, you.
Okay.
You, please be careful about that.
Like, it's.
You're right.
Yeah.
I don't think I should.
Yeah.
Yeah.
Yeah.
It's not a good idea to bring dumbbells in there.
You can, you can recover your muscles.
You can recover that.
You're right.
You can retake.
You're right.
Let's, let's go to the gym together, if you want to, after all those things.
Yeah.
You can retake.
I, I can do it.
Yeah.
Yeah.
Yeah.
It's better not to risk anything.
Yeah.
Yeah.
You're right.
Please don't risk anything.
You just.
Yeah.
I don't know.
You can, you, you can just do some wrist exercise, maybe.
Wrist exercise, yeah, maybe.
Finger things, maybe, but.
Yeah.
I'll, I'll consult, I'll, I'll consult with the, the nurses.
Yeah, you should.
Yeah.
You should.
I'll ask the nurses.
Yeah.
Be like, hey, I brought this from home.
Do you think I can use this?
I don't know.
What are the chances of them saying yes?
But, yeah, I don't know.
You're young.
I know, right?
You know, situations.
I recover fast, I guess.
Yeah, a bit different, so.
I don't smoke.
I don't.
Yeah.
Alcohol, so.
Yeah, yeah, yeah.
I guess I'm faster recovery.
Yeah.
I don't know.
I'm not a doctor, so.
Yeah.
Be, be consulted.
Oh, yeah.
That's a profession.
You should do, yeah.
Yeah.
Yeah.
健康への過度な配慮
You know, after I got this disease, not disease, this, what do you, this condition.
Yeah.
I searched a lot about cancer.
Yeah, okay.
And the thing is, the more, like, it's, the more I research about it, the more I realized
that you shouldn't be too, too careful about your health.
You shouldn't be too, like, like, you know.
Before I did the research, did a lot of, like, research on the cancer, my, my mind would
be, like, I have to do every test, you know, to see if there's, like, cancer.
I have to do every, like, you know.
Different types of.
Different types, yeah.
But, like, the more I research about it, it's not good.
It's, there's a, there's more downside to it.
Oh, okay.
Than, than positive side.
Because the likeliness of you getting a negative, a positive on cancer, if you're young as
we are.
Yeah.
癌検査の考え方
There's, it's just, it's, and getting a positive and actually having the cancer, meaning it's
a false positive.
Okay.
The, the chances of false positive is so high.
Oh.
That it's just, it's so, it's, it's going to eat up all your time.
It's going to eat up all your energy.
Yeah.
So, the more I research about it, the more you realized that you should only just go
with what the government is suggesting you do.
Okay.
You know, doing the test when you're 40, doing the test when you're 30.
Okay.
Yeah.
At the same time, I'm just, I'm so lucky that I found out that I had this shit.
Yeah.
Yeah, there's, there's both sides of me.
Huh.
I'm just, I was in this really, really rare case.
Okay.
I was, I'm so rare that, that I had this when I'm 30.
Okay.
So like.
Huh.
Yeah.
So in general.
You get so many false positives.
What do you mean?
So even if you do, like, daichou kensa.
Yeah.
Then you, the doctor says that you, you're likely having the, like, a little poor deep
things.
Yeah.
So, y'all are going to have to do this research on your own because I'm not a professional.
Right, right, right.
I'm not a doctor.
But, look, there's, there's tests that you can do before the daichou kensa, like, ben
kensa.
Yeah.
Those things.
If you get some blood on your shit.
Yeah.
There's only 1% chance that you actually have cancer.
Oh.
So.
Okay.
It's a high false positive.
I see.
I see.
So the more you're, like.
Huh.
You get into, like, a paralysis of, like, I have to do this, I have to do this, I have
to do this.
It's going to eat you up.
So, the more I found out that maybe I don't need to do two times a year of kenko shindan.
Yeah.
Yeah, yeah, yeah.
That's what I found out.
I see.
I see.
I see.
Yeah.
Yeah.
I understand that.
I get it.
But at the same time, you.
Exactly, exactly.
There's a case of you that.
There's a case of me that I actually found.
I beat the chances, you know.
Yeah, yeah, yeah.
I beat the chances and I was actually, I actually had.
Right.
So, I was just so lucky.
So, if I did this research earlier.
Yeah.
I probably would not have done it.
So, like.
It's so weird.
It's so weird.
That's so weird.
So, you were lucky that you didn't research enough.
I know.
I was lucky that I was uneducated.
Yeah.
Wow.
What the hell does that mean?
Right.
It's so weird.
It's so weird.
Wow.
No, I mean, I was, I was about to do that test.
Okay.
Oh, yeah.
The same one that you did through.
So, yeah.
So, another thing that I did find out.
Found out.
Was that doing it once.
You know, you haven't done it in years, right?
Yeah.
Doing it once.
That's great.
True.
Just know your thing.
Know your body.
And if you found nothing, you don't have to go twice a year.
You only have to do once every two years or three years.
I see.
That's all you gotta do.
If you're concerned, right?
Right, right, right.
Usually, you have to wait until, you don't have to go until you're 40 or so.
But, like, yeah.
Like, if you're more, like, concerned about your body.
Yeah, just take one, do it once.
And then just chill.
I see.
Just go every two years or so.
Makes so much sense.
You see the current situation.
Right.
Like, we're still, but.
But, at the same time, you're 30, so.
Right, right, right, right, right.
I'm talking about the level that I was trying to do.
Where, like, I'm going to do, I'm going to do daijoubu camera.
And then half a year, I'm going to do bariumu.
And then half a year, I'm going to do daijoubu camera.
That's doing it too much.
That's too much.
Yeah, right.
It's doing it too much.
Yeah, right.
There are highly chances that you will, the people will find something.
And they say you may have this, but actually not.
Many, many, many times.
And every time you do that, like, you have to be worrying.
Yeah.
Yeah.
Okay, okay.
Right.
I see, I see.
Yeah.
Well, that's good.
Yeah.
Right.
Yeah.
So.
But you're lucky.
But I was fucking lucky that I found this right now.
I was fucking lucky.
Yeah.
And I hope this luck, you know, that I grabbed.
Yes.
Will continue my life.
Yes.
Like a fucking dough.
Fucking dough.
Fucking dough, man.
Yeah.
Yeah.
Finger crossed.
Fingers crossed, man.
Fingers crossed.
Fingers crossed.
Yeah.
I don't know.
Fingers crossed.
Arms crossed.
Yeah.
If that helps.
Cross everything.
I don't know.
Yeah.
Twist it.
Yeah.
Get it all twisted.
Yeah.
Yeah.
Honestly.
Yeah.
Yeah.
Yeah.
Yeah.
Yeah.
Yeah.
Yeah.
So.
Yeah.
So.
Okay.
Yeah.
Let's end this episode and we're not talking about anything else.

Yeah.
