Fantastic. My surgeon said 80% of recurrences happen in the first 24 months... so you're in a good place right now!

Does anyone know when you're supposed to start counting the 24 months? Is it from the date of resection or the day you finish chemo?

My understanding, you count from the day of diagnoses.

As for NED, it should be counted from when you became NED. "How long have you been NED?" For me since April 2015 after my surgery, since b4 that I was not NED. If that's what you were talking about.
