Susan Cornett Posted August 11, 2017 Share Posted August 11, 2017 I made it 9 months after my treatment before a recurrence was found earlier this year. I had one misbehaving lymph node near my aortic arch so it couldn't be surgically removed. Between March 21st and July 14th, I had a biopsy, 30 rounds of radiation, 8 rounds of chemo, and lost all of my hair. But, it was worth it because I received my CT results today and I'm NED!! I'll have a PET scan in about 8 weeks just to ease Super Doc's mind and, if all clear, I'll resume my 90 day scan cycle. As always, I'm eternally grateful for the friends and resources available on this site. Pat M, LaurenH, Tom Galli and 2 others 5 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
