Oh 'censored', I'm really sorry to hear that Darkdaz - so the chemotherapy has been completely succesful by the sounds of it?   Thats good if so.  Is there any chance of it reoccuring or does gone mean gone?

My thoughts are with you.

Sorry to hear that Daz. It's good though that Chemo has been from the sounds of it completely successful. Also to those wondering if it can reoccur, from my studies during college in a Human Biology class at Texas A&M (I have a Computer Science Masters) the chance of it reoccuring if Chemo is successful is around a 3.246% chance of reoccurance if you have a healthy immune system and no other major health problems.

thanks  Roji8. yea i have to be careful still, as the doctors told me before i started the chemo just doesn't destory the bad cells but destorys your good cells(the ones that fights of the colds etc). so that return to normal soon, it will take time.

but like i said i still have to go for check ups every now then, but it shouldnt return. as i said the last scans i had showed the cancer has gone comepeletly.

hello all, sorry i havn't been on but had hospital appointments and so on,.,


good news
i went for my scan 3 weeks ago and then went for my results 2 weeks ago, the results showed that the cancer has gone, but the bad news is that they also showed that my bones have become weak with the chemo. so i can't lift like i use...

the other good news is that i got my own domain, if u need the address just let me no...
