Dollfinn Posted September 25, 2007 Share Posted September 25, 2007 My name is Mary, Im pretty good w/ PC, but this format and this cancer is all new to me. I will "test run" this post before I share my road from a back ache in June to stage IIIB NSC adenocarcinoma. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

recce101 Posted September 26, 2007 Share Posted September 26, 2007 Hi, Mary, welcome from another IIIB adenocarcinoma. But I prefer to be called Ned, since that's been my nickname for most of my life and it's also the acronym for those wonderful words "no evidence of disease" that people love to hear. I'm not there yet, but maybe someday. This group will become part of your family. My best wishes and Aloha, Ned Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dollfinn Posted September 26, 2007 Author Share Posted September 26, 2007 Ned! You made my day.thats it! Im suffering from scanxiety. I cant get past it, so I just go through it. I had my last chemo 8/17 and last Radiation 9/12. My first scan will be the end of Oct. PS I feel pretty good. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
recce101 Posted September 26, 2007 Share Posted September 26, 2007 Hi again, Mary. You must have seen that word in my profile before I updated it, which I just now did. If I'm not mistaken, you can credit the coining of "scanxiety" to Adrian, who joined the group several months ago on behalf of his dad. I guess it's possible that someone else in another part of the world has come up with that word too, but that only proves that great minds can create similar innovations even when separated by many miles with no knowledge of one another. Aloha from Ned P.S. Adrian, would you like my PayPal ID? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Welthy Posted September 26, 2007 Share Posted September 26, 2007 Mary, Welcome to the community. The knowledge runs deep and the support deeper with our on-line family. Good luck on the October scans. Regards, Welthy Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jyoung20 Posted September 26, 2007 Share Posted September 26, 2007 Hi Mary, Welcome to our site. Praying for great scans!!! God Bless!! Jamie Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tiredmom959 Posted September 26, 2007 Share Posted September 26, 2007 Welcome ... my mom too will have a CT/PET scan at the end of October to check the status of the effectiveness of Tarceva she is now on. Know that you'll have company while going through scanxiety. I know NED is perhaps an unrealistic goal for her at this point, but we'll be happy with "stable", NED's buddy.
