That's the spirit Mike, stay positive I hope everything works out, mojo being sent over the pond.

Thanks again !

Now I try and enjoy the holiday weekend and go in on Tuesday for one more set of labwork and then get the results.

My thoughts and Prayers are with you. I just beat lung cancer about a year and a half ago, never smoked in my life. my old lady has been on my case to have my colen checked, I guess I will. I just found out my Brother who has lung cancer was rushed to the hospital now it spred to his brian. Hes in Texas and im in Kentucky. Looks like i'll be in Texas in a few days.Just be strong and you can beat it.Talk to you later.

I found out this morning that the scans were clean and I asked my Oncologist, "so I'm in remission?...and he said Total Remission!!!"

They didn't even flush the mediport, instead they are arranging the removal date and should be calling me back today and I'll be scheduled for my annual scope check as well.

The port and catheter to my neck removal will be done again by radiological surgery.

It was explained that "monitoring" will go on for the next 5 years. My next follow up is end of September.

Thanks to everyone for their support and I hope that this thread helps others (or loved ones) that end up with some form of stage III cancer.

Early detection is key and makes a HUGE difference, so if you're due to be checked, I urge you to go for the procedure.
