Guys,

My annual scans are coming up next week.  I have not had scans in a year soooo I have the usual gitters.

I will keep you all posted.

Update 4/15/15:

All scans are clear, CEA is fantastic.  No scans for another year, colonoscopy yearly, see Onc in 6 months.

My Onc was so happy he kept shaking my hand.  I am NED 3 years and 4 months.  He said with what I had passing the 3 year mark with no recurrance is critical.

I am overjoyed.  Now I am going to the gym to keep up all my healthy living.

All my best to everyone!!!!!!

    Good luck wishes heading your way

    You will do well, I know it. But I know how you feel, there is always the niggle in the brain, the 'what if?' that never leaves. 

    I have bloods coming up, and try not to think about it. Just every now and again 'what if?' and 'I really don't want to go through any more'. 

    What date is your scan?

    Scan

    My scan is Sunday - yes, Sunday.  I can take advantage of the radiology dept being open to support the ED.  It helps in not having to take time off.  I also get CEA and meet with Onc on Wed.  So it is a BIG week.  My last CEA was 0.8 - which is great - I know.  It is always nagging at the brain, like a hushed little voice.
