I had my first 3 month scan since chemo and all is clear. I should be happy, and I am, but if I am honest, I expected it to be clear “for now”. Does anybody have this feeling too? I wasn’t anxious about this scan; I am anxious about the 3rd or 4th scan. It’s like waiting for the bad news to drop, so you can’t quite enjoy the good news till then. To make it worse, my oncologist is so optimistic that instead of scans in 3 months, we will go straight to the 6 month surveillance. Oh, and during this meeting, I found out that my markers are MSS, RAF RAS wild and PIK3CA (also something about above average tumor mutation). I brought up Signatera testing again, and she, again, said, no, no point doing it, and again, I didn’t press her on it.
Oh, on another subject, I am often forgetting stuff. I know about chemo brain, but how long does it last? I know I should have brought it up with my doctor, but guess what? I forgot!
