NED and fantastic medical teams 💕
Today I am officially NED 😃🤩🥳🥰. On the 4 Dec, I finally had my left nipple removed, and today at my post op appointment results came back clear. After my nipple/skin sparing mastectomies in April...
I think NED got more popular in order to distinguish between partial and complete remission. Remission is often used to describe a considerable reduction in the evidence of disease but not all gone. Complete remission may be interpreted as complete cure but unfortunately some cancer cells may still be lurking, undetectable. NED is clearer - no evidence of disease.
