Hey Ziggy, Most excellent report . . . I love good news....
HI CLDCR, I'll be starting Chemo in a few weeks myself though it's taken me 8.5 years to get there. I'm not really bothered by the idea just not looking forward to the inevitable fatigue. You are...
Congrats Beth and Gary, I so agree with you on the prognosis, I was given 3 years at Dx, I'm at 8.5 years now and all engines running. Keep up the good life . . . Q...
There's no RP In my future, that would just cause the cancer fo spread they tell me. I have no idea what she meant by surgery either, I see my MO on the 16th so I'll ask then. Right now I'm just...
Sorry about the loss Bily Bob, I have to agree with the aggressive treatment of aa man in his eighties. It sure put a lot of pressure on my 52 year old system . . . Q...

Geop, sounds like your in a met hurt. Are you in much pain? My original mets were taken out by HT and it wasn't until 8 years later that I began to have a few micro mets show up in similar regions as...
