Keep up the good work Stan!
Hello Stanny1, I’m working on six years myself post dx . I did 8 wks imrt ( no surgery) and double adt . I moved quickly into osteopenia and just had my third prolia shot ... I test tri-monthly .but with years of clear stats I don’t think much about it until the day of testing . Then I’m down on my knees begging for mercy . Hopefully you will stay clear for many years . Take care. Scott🌵
It gets easier with time. Keep up the good fight.
You know this Magnus .but we can Remember those first years of mental anguish .... you’ve been thru decades with APC ... you set the bar high for the rest of us . Thank you 🌵
So high we cant even go on a barstool and have a drink!!!
Talking about barstools? I went to burning man 2013. One installment on the playa was a bar . The bar top was about 8 feet tall . Everyone was on stilts . Running around under their feet were a bunch of midgets . All dressed up in steam punk wear from the turn of the century . Walking by , it caught your attention . That alone , was worth the price of admission .
I can imagine...definitely a unique experience....and as to Burning Man...I wish to be buried in a vault and no cremation for me!!!
Everyone of us gets a butterfly stomach when it's time to see our doctor(s) and find out what's on our scoreboard. You're in good company.....
Good Luck, Good Health and Good Humor.

Goes with the turf! 😳
Anxiety?? WWWwhat's that. We all live with that to some extent. I usually go to patient portal the next day to check results before meeting with oncologist. Don't know if it really helps, but I don't have surprises at meetings and can be more calm discussing any problems that may have become evident.
I get all my test results before I see my Dr now on the portal, so until something changes the Dr visit seems somewhat worthless. Hope it stays this way for a long time.
