Aloha All
along with Kumar I'd like to add some positive news; saw the gyn/onc 12/9; CA 125 still holding at 11; NED once again; still get quite "nuts" before I go, during and after; I spoke with a lovely FEMALE resident; advised her the fear and anxiety are increasing with each visit; her research specialty is the psychosocial effects of chemo and cancer on the pt; she understood; being a psyche professional myself; consider the fact you've been mutilated (surgery), poisoned and then return to the scene of the crime to be tortured again (PAPS..dr takes 3-5 samples each time); no wonder there's elevated anxiety; XANAX is a wonderful drug along with a mile walk to get to the Women's Center after I ride the bus for 45 minutes....I'm looking forward to the time when I graduate to check ups every six months

Merry Christmas...be at peace; know that you all are loved by many
Marie

    Maybe the scales are starting to tip back towards the positive.
    That would be fantastic.

    Happy for you and all who love you.

    Good News
    Congrats, Marie. What a great Christmas present.

    I'm just at the beginning of this journey recuping from surgery with high hopes of having the same report as you this time next year. (Not looking forward to the every 3 months exams since they seem to be a mite uncomfortable from the reports here...but, at least I'm here to be nervous about it.)

    So so wonderful! I truly believe that you are cured.
    You caught your cancer so early and you were so aggressive at making sure you had the best shot at getting away clean fromn this. And I truly believe that you have. I am SO happy for you to have this new confirmation that all is well! ((((hugs)))))

    Your News
    Congratulations. What great news to get just before Christmas. I had my first check up with the oncologist who supervised my chemo, the radiation oncologist and the gyn oncologist. Good news from all of them. I think I was lucky because this first pap wasn't uncomfortable at all. I faithfully use the dilator. Maybe that helped or maybe I was just so happy to be hearing good news that I didn't pay attention. All three were very supportive and said I should be proud of myself for all that I had experienced and handled well. I was like a little child getting praise from the teacher. Now I'm getting ready to be a snowbird and leave this frigid climate for three months.
