I'm 10 years clear, and I had my 10th Pet/CT scan done this week. Mine are done once a year, blood work every three months still. I would recommend that you continue.
Praise God and my Doctors! This weeks Pet/CT scans and blood work all Normal!! Ten years since my surgery and chemo! Prayers for everyone on this journey here.
"Normal colon"...what wonderful words to hear!! So grateful and thankful for good results. Repeat test in 2 years now. Still scans every 6 months. Blood work still every 3 months. Prayers to all on this board.
My toes are numb all the time, but it's just something I've gotten used to. My husband and I are avid walkers, travel a lot and a good pair of tennis shoes or sandals and no problem! My best to you!
I had all those side effects too, just try to push through as best as you can, it's not easy. But now, 7 years and normal Pet/CT scans all these years, I'm glad I did the Folfox. Toes still kinda numb, eyes water, but you can adjust to these discomforts, because its great to be alive! Hang in there!
I did Folfox six years ago. What helped me was lots of water and light exercise every day( even if its a short walk around the block!) My toes are still numb, but it doesn't slow me down in my golf game Good luck, God bless.
