Dear Dr Prasad,

We have been now also to ENT doctor as well with the daughter and together with the pediatric hematologist they are clear that the tonsils need to be removed. They believe this swollen nodes issue is a result of constantly enlarged tonsils as well as the aftermath of mononucleosis / Ebstein Barr Virus. Do you think as well?

Actually I wanted to ask now about myself. It is easier write than to talk so I hope you do not mind. As you have surely diagnosed I am hypohondric about the cancer issue but the big drama is that I really have done zero to avoid it. I am now 40, been constantly overweight at 180 cm and 137 kg and do not move. On the positive side i do not smoke nor drink.

Do you think at this age it still makes sense to go for the change or is the damage already permanently done? Is there any chance that at fourty there is a way to reverse it? I worked on a new project where i had limited hours of sleep for a couple of weeks and i feel totally drained. I do not seem to get out of it even i sleep instead of 4-5 hrs now 6-7 hrs. So it is clear that something seems to be somewhat wrong, all the power i used to have younger is gone, the only question is if it can be cured.

How is your honest view on this?

With best regards
Kaido
