Brilliant result well done you must be pleased hope you have celebrated and you wont mind finishing the rest, all the very best for 2017
Brilliant! Yes, remission is apparently the same as NED, which as you probably know stands for...no evidence of disease .
I'm in the same position as you , 2 more sessions to go after 3 original sessions and debulking surgery..
Hoping these good results last for a long time ! 🎉🍾
Much love ❤️ Jackie xx
I just did a quick internet search and this comes up a number of times
"In complete remission, all signs and symptoms of cancer have disappeared, although cancer still may be in the body." NED, of course, is, "No evidence of disease." You can't see cancer on scans or in blood, but that doesn't mean it isn't there. Cure means one is restored to health, their disease never to return."
So, as Jackie has said, they are pretty much the same thing.
Great results so hopefully you can relax 👍🏻😀💐
Take care

First of all Congratulations on the lovely news . Its such a maor relief for you and your family and friends .
Clare has put this in the right perspective . Adding to it , the medical term for there being no evidence of disease is " in complete remission" . IMHO, technically there is no such term as NED. However this can be confirmed only after the bloods and scans have been done post debulking and chemo.
