3 years is great. I requested (and got) a few extra 3 month checkups. One found mets to my brain. I'm I've been on a 6 month cycle for the last couple of years, and don't plan to change it any time soon.
Ain't it a great feeling to be upgraded? Or is it a downgrade?

Hooray for you Bobert!!
I saw my ENT on Friday and after 3 years I'm also NED. I got my checkups reduced from every 3 months to every 6 months, too.
6 years, 3 weeks, 2 days ago, I was diagnosed with Small Cell Lung Cancer. Today I got the "Still Clear" from my Oncologist. It's now been 4 1/2 years of NED reports. Next check in 6 months.
Life Is Good. Tomorrow Barb and I are going down the coast to visit some friends who live off the grid in Big Sur. I'll take some photos and post them on the web.
