Hi all! I just finished my last infusion (numbet 18 of dense dosing therapy - hooray!) on Friday - I was diagnosed in August 2016 with stage IIIc high grade serous, had optimal surgical outcome and no lymph involvement...I feel pretty good and see my oncologist in one month - at what point is one considered NED?

Mine was an end of treatment scan one month after last chemo. That showed nothing and a CA125 blood test result which was in the reference range PLUS no symptoms = NED.
I had a scan just before Christmas 2016 a month after my last chemo. Then saw my oncologist early January. That scan was compared with my scan at the beginning of chemo and both showed no evidence of disease. My blood markers had also returned to normal levels. Good luck, keep positive and onward!👍

I imagine you will have a scan before your appointment to check how the treatment worked and then your onc will tell you the end result, Are you in Ireland with that Irish name??
