@jessie1990 Well, because I have started with a new doctor, he does not want to see me again for 3 months from the 1st visit. He said he will be closely checking not only my lungs, but my liver. Most cancers have a path they travel if it metastasizes. (Liver than bones for carcinoid tumors) At this point though, this new doctor, after looking at the pathology report, is questioning if I even had carcinoid tumor. If I didn't, that means the 1st surgeon operated for nothing and I have been in horrible pain for 5 months for nothing. So, I really don't know for my case. Most likely for you, it will be every 3 months for the first year post-op, then every year thereafter. That is what I was told by the 1st surgeon. Because your surgery was so invasive, I'm praying they got it all. 🙏
