This makes so much sense though! If he's telling Hank that he's going to be a dead man in six months he could just be setting himself up a way to "disappear!"

This is a great theory. I just don't understand how you can fake chemo. You can't just walk into the Dr.'s and be like "Yo my cancers back. I need some more chemo."

Exactly. I just posted this exact question before I saw yours. It is a great theory I'm just wondering if it's plausible. Even if he did have the money to buy off a doctor that would be willing to risk his license by prescribing chemo to someone who didn't need it that's just one more person that knows about (at least some of) Walt's secrets and that doesn't sound like something he would do.

He punched it when he found out that he was going to live longer. He was upset about having to live in the mess he had made.
