Good Good Good

My scan results were all that we wanted them to be. I am in remission and it's even possible that I could be in complete remission, if, when my cancer was detected, it was in fact stage 3, and not stage 4. This is something we will know only with time. If I go past 3 years with clean scans, I'm sitting pretty. If I go past 5 years, then I'm probably really home free.

So I'll be having blood tests and getting scanned in 6 months. He told me that getting this CT scan is equivalent to having 1000 xrays, so he doesn't want to scan me too often, but 6 months seems reasonable at this point... After that we'll probably be on an annual schedule.

He told me not to be discouraged about the fatigue, that it sometimes takes 2 months for it to go away completely, and I'm only 2 weeks from radiation completion.

So.....Yay! I'm gonna go out and live.
