I know exactly what you mean,about feeling like just another number.When I finished treatment,I was like,don't they want to do scans,don't they want to do blood tests? How will I know if it comes back? But do you know what,now 12 months on,I can honestly see that the followup appointments combined with our own diligence,are perfectly adequate.Donna is so right when she says,it does start to feel better!! It's really hard to understand that though,when you are just at the end of your treatment,and also because you have the added problem of no spleen.Going to the gym,seeing a dietician,are all fantastic things to be doing to get your body back on track.It takes time,so don't expect miracles.I am 10 months past my last chemo,and it is probably the last 2 or 3 months that I can say that I feel really fantastic.Stay in touch,because this is just what this blog is for... Before and after support.CheersxoxRobyn
