Maybe a little good news – 2 yrs all clear
Posted by LeeH on May 5, 2010 at 2:00 amStarted out with my Uro visit last month. A check on urine volume was good, but he said the stream rating ml/sec (I think is how they measure) is a little slow but not enough to do anything about. The neobladder is totally empty after voiding. So I am good to go for 6 months till the next uro visit.
I just finished my CT scan at the U of Chicago. I got an all clear with all negatives and blood work is all good. Was told followups can be once a year for the CT scan. They said if it was going to reappear it probably would have already. They said 90% happens in the first 2 years.
Of course I am pleased but with what I read here I still hold my breath. Guess its just the nature of the beast.
I don’t know if I’m over the mountain yet but I’m getting closer.

Had mine 2.5 years ago and have a similar result/story as you. Still hold my breath at CAT scans and take one day at a time but it’s still good news so far.
Good Luck
