@jcl2018 Exactly. If it is all so darn safe, why do they leave the room? Ask your team what it is they are looking for. Ask them to justify all of this. If you or anyone else haven't a clue why you need years of follow-up, then just say goodby. It could very well be that they think you want all of this added care. Five years is the standard. First year can be two or three exams. Second and third year is often one to two exams. Then once per year through year five. Better than 80% of reoccurrence shows up within the first two years.
I remember being told at the five year mark that I was now at the same average as the rest of the general population. I said to myself "Great." "That's where I was when I got cancer!"
