3 Month Post-Treatment Check

I met with my consultant on Monday. Have gave me a check over - said all seemed fine and then scheduled a CT scan for June.

One interesting part was him asking me if i had been blogging on the internet!! I remembered how i had mentioned his name a few times on this blog and how it gets picked up on Google searches - quite funny!

I got some good information on the post-chemo follow up.

Checks will be every 3 months.. then move to 6 monthly.. then finally annually - i'll be seeing him for.. the next FIVE YEARS!

To me that is quite a big deal - in terms of putting something behind you and being sure its gone and not having to worry about it again that 5 year time scale is a big issue with all of those things.

Well, good news that i seem to still be clear though - guess we'll know more in June.

Don't worry about 5 years. Everyone has some level of risk to contract/develop cancer. It just means you will have the best chance of nipping it in the bud before it does anything.
