Absolutely wonderful news! Hoping and praying for a loooooooong remission. Like forever!

Apologies for bringing this thread to the forefront again. September 14th marks year 5 since I had surgery for lung cancer. They say that if you live 5 years after diagnosis, then it's all thumbs up. My CT scans are every year now and in August I had one as scheduled. Unfortunately they found something that may be scar tissue but they are not sure. I now have to revert back to CT scans every 3 months. My next one is November 7th. Regardless of how I feel, I must remember that every day is a gift, and they are gifts that I treasure.

Just thought I would share. I read through this whole thread and when I see what Phred posted, well, that just brings me LES.

Oh, and I meant to say that I received news today from my Mom that my cousin in the States just had a double mastectomy. It's times like this that I get so angry.....

I think we need to just "pray" this away.

You have all my prayers and best thoughts that this is nothing dear friend.

Is there no diagnostic that would be more definitive than a CT scan? Just curious. Here's hoping it's "just" scar tissue, your poor lungs have been through enough!
