    Shrinkage is Good
    Unless of course, you're George Costanza. It's certainly a good sign when the docs are impressed with what they are seeing. Fight on and Cheers

    Congrats
    Congrats on the MD comments....

    It's always a hard balance between anxiety and confidence. One that all of us have many times and it's rather dynamic.

    It's easy to feel good especially right have good check-ups and scans. But unfortunately it's equally easy to have that confidence shaken when you get something going on in the area that you have had affected.

    Only thing that I can offer is to enjoy the good times, be aware of changes and try to stay positive.

    Best,
    John
