I saw my oncologist today and got great news!
My barium CT scan showed no evidence of disease.
I am so thankful that prayers have been answered!!!
Oncologist recommended that I see a colon surgeon for colonoscopy as
there is a link between uterine cancer and colon cancer. I am 54 yrs old and had a colonoscopy when I turned 50 which was OK.
I also will see a neurologist to see what if anything can be
done to mitigate the numbness ( neuropathy ) left in my feet from the chemo.
I know you all understand how happy and grateful I am to get this good news!
Also I get to have my port removed now.

    Northwoods girl....
    What wonderful news!!! KEEP DANCING with NED!!! Celebrate!

    I think it is a good idea to have the colonoscopy. My gastroenterologist told me about the additional concerns since I was diagnosed with uterine cancer...

    Stay well and live life to the fullest!!

    Oh Happy Day!
    glad you are NED! I have neuropathy and the best drug I have found so far is Lyrica. I tried the tricyclic antidepressants but had too many side effects.
