Hi Primek
Firstly thank you for your help. Yes I am in Qld and the answer to your question that perhaps I am questioning my decision well No I am not. Scared perhaps of my decision with my tumor markers elevated but I am certain I do not want chemo.. My oncologist told me last week it is to late for chemo etc now they like to do it no more than 9 weeks after surgery.

I just can't fathom this treatment .
