    The only dumb question
    Hello. Forgive me for barging in ladies, not a regular. As my 8th grade teacher used to say, the only dumb question is an unasked question. NED stands for no evidence of disease or no evaluable disease. Meaning that cancer, if still there is so small, no scans or blood tests are detecting it. It's a good thing!

    There is no dumb question on
    There is no dumb question on here, remember that. Ask anything. NED is no evidence of disease. That is what we all pray to hear following our tests. So, ask away!
