@jutebox42: I am just like you trying to lead a positive life even with a terminal cancer. I turn 80 in May ‘25. Treatment decisions are very difficult. I think if we have quality scans 3-4 times a year we can be assured that our tumors are not progressing out of control. If we are comfortable with 28day Lanreotide shot or no shot if it interferes with our preferred life style - it is our choice. However if a scan reveals tumor progression I believe you are best served by NET specialist at a cancer center for best treatment advice and your choice of treatment facility. This approach has served well for me.
I wish you great fun in your writing career. It is a positive mental distraction from being only an oncology patient. I think You can do this YOUR way… but be villigant with scans. Be well! Be happy!
