It’s scares me shitless that you didn’t have any symptoms @Ellamary98 and my oncol has stopped the three monthly bloods and says they aren’t necessary. I was diagnosed may 2016 (triple neg stage 2a grade 3 no lymph nodes involved scans all clear) so 2 years cancer free for me But after reading your story I feel perhaps I should insist on them now. He says tumor markers aren’t always a good indicator of disease . I have some osteo as a result of the chemo putting me into menopause and the oncolalways reassures me thats all it is and the symptoms have been the same all along with that morning stiffness sometimes and sometimes it’s aggravated on a cold morning. So how the fuck are you supposed to know if the ugly fucker has raised its head again or not!! I so wish you all the very best love and I hope the change of medication is kind to you too. Like you said you’ll be around for a long time yet. It’s reassurng to hear you are so positive about it. I think the counselling is a good idea you will know when the time is right for you with that. And yes @kmakm is always entertaining so is @Zoffiel. Always makes you laugh. That’s how I’ve got through all this shit too. Biggest hug. Margie xx.
