Thanks for all the support folks, much appreciated
Just getting into my current follow up protocols now that I am officially outta'
da' big house cancer centreI am not scheduled for any CTs ( I always had Chest-Abdomen-Pelvis numerous times as Stage IV ) because I am back with my family doctor and there are no specific protocols for someone in my position.
Summary of the plan we have concocted :
chest and abdominal xrays ( multiple views ) and abdominal / liver ultrasound, all this fall
continued general blood tests including CEA ( not a marker for me ) CA19-9, LDH, liver enzymes
probably on a 6 month basis with HgbA1c every three months ( I'm on a statin which keeps me borderline in the high FBS zone )
...and whatever she thinks needs checking OR I ask her for... !
I have a VERY good doctor who is always supportive of my plans to be aggressive in follow up !!!!
more updates as they happen
Cheers all
