CT/PET Scan results 6/06

I repeated my PET and CT scans this past Thursday.  Today, I went to my lymphoma doctor.  Everything is the same so that is good news.  Also, my blood work had improved enough so that I can stop taking the last of the preventive medicines.  So now I am only on the synthroid (the thyroid medication) which I will take the rest of my life.  I will repeat my scans again in September.
 
I know I should be more excited, but honestly I just feel weird.  It's like I'm still in limbo.  I guess this is the way it will be for a while.  Maybe for the rest of my life.  There will always be another test and I can't think about it.  I probably shouldn't write right after I come home from the doctor because I know tomorrow I will wake up with a better attitude.  But writing things helps me work it out, so here I am.  But at least I will be able to enjoy this summer and that is what I plan to do!
 
For all you Yankee fans, the NY Yankees are having a fund raiser selling t-shirts and the money goes to Sloan-Kettering.  They are nice shirts and they are $20 each.  Here is the link if you would like to check it out.

You should write.  It is good therapy.  I am glad everything went well for you.
