Hi all, it has been forever sense I put a post on here but I still stop in and check things out from time to time. It has been two years sense I found out I had cancer and this group which im still thankful for. I have had 4 pet scans, the last one in July. All is clear so far. I have one in Feb. and it its ok I think I will be done for a year at a time ,,YEAH !!! To all of you going through this, keep the faith, never stop prying and dont give up,,,ever. To all the ones just starting into this. Dont let what you read in here scare you and stop you from comeing in. Every one reacts to different treatments in different ways. I had no bad side effects from radiation or chemo. I had no pain of any kind . Talk to your dr about all your fears and be sure to tell them if you dont understand something. I had some of the best drs and was taken care at a wonderful hospital, I think that goes a long way in helping the healing process. They say if you stay cancer free for two years you have pretty well beat it but,,,,the fear every time you have a little pain dosent go away right away. I just let God handle it for me,,its going to go his way anyway so try not to wory to much and let him help get you through this,,your gonna be fine.
