1 year out, and 4th NED

in Head and Neck Cancer #1

Just to give hope to others who are unfortunate to join this group, I had my 4th three month checkup and received the all clear. 

I was told that I could now switch to every six months. Was happy about that, but then got scared that I'll be waiting much longer to get checkups.  Still, I do worry about the number of Ct Scans done so far.

My heart breaks every time I see someone new joining the group.  It's a very good group, and I learned a lot, and for so much support, that it made me feel better on the hard days.

I don't recognize the names from last year when I was struggling to deal with radiation.  Hope that those who helped me are doing well.

Keep fighting! There is life after cancer.

    Thank you both. Andy, are you

    Thank you both. Andy, are you the member who posted about running after some weeks of treatment?

    I have found that exercise really helps with the fatigue, especially weights.

    Great news!!.  You and I were on almost an identical treatment cycle last year as we finished up just days apart.  So happy to hear you are doing well.
