Did the three others continue with chemo following surgery?

No. None of us had chemo after surgery. Which I think is not the correct treatment plan. I was told clear margins, no lymph nodes, complete pathological response. Thus no need for additional chemo. I asked 3 oncologists, and all said no chemo needed. Seems for PC, every patient should do adjuvant chemo following surgery due to high likelihood of micrometastasis.
