REMISSION!!!!!

I have some very, very good news to report. As of today, I'm officially back in REMISSION!!!! Whoo-hoooo!!!!

I finished my chemotherapy regimen in January and had a PET/CT scan earlier this week. I got the results this afternoon and I feel so ecstatic, relieved, and happy.

I have been fighting this bout of cancer for over a year. The chemo regimen was tough, but now I can say that it was absolutely worth it!!!

I still have to go through 2 years of maintenance therapy with Rituxan as the latest studies show that it really helps people stay in remission longer. So I'm looking forward to a nice looooooong remission.

Thank you so much to all of you that have followed and helped me on this arduous journey. I will still post occasionally to let you how the Rituxan maintenance is going.

Hooray to remission, my oncologist, my partner, my family and friends!!
