Update - I heard those lovely words, "you have a clean colon".  OMG!!  The Dr did take some cells from the area where I had a pre-c polyp removed last year.  But said all looked really really good and he said I would not have to see him for 3 years.  I may not wait 3, but it was great to hear.  As a 3b signet cell - this is tremendous.

My birthday is 1/25 and I feel for the first time in 3 years I can truely celebrate.  I feel so blessed and fortunate.

I send my love and prayers to all.  Please IM me if I can provide any info or encouragement.

*********************************************************************

 

Fingers crossed everyone.  I will update the post when I know.  Last year I had 1 small pre-c polyp removed so who knows.

    Thanks Guys

    With my CEA at 0.7 I feel pretty good about it but I am a realist and did have that pre-c polyp last year. 

    I feel alot more prepared than last year.  Kinda like when you have a second cesarean you are better prepared then the first (especially if it was a surprise!).

    Will keep you all posted.

    Yahoo!

    That's great news!  But I agree about not waiting 3 years...that seems a long time to go between check-ups, esp when you are a stage 3.  

    I wonder what the national recommendation is?

    Anyway, congratulations on the excellent results!

    Hugs~AA

    HOORAY! That is going to be one great birthday celebration.

    Agree with AA ... no, on the waiting three years. Enjoy blowing out those candles.

    Bring him on

    Here he is, just for you, the Happy Dance Man image.

    Great news indeed. 

    I think three years sounds great, as long as you CEA stays within range. 

    Be sure to come in on your birthday, we're going to PAR-TAY.
