Good morning- It seems that between every 3 months and 6 months are the norms for following lesions depending on how new they are or if they have grown, and of course their size.

With my first cancer, I started keeping all of my tests, scans, and lab work. I began looking up all of the terms that I wasn't familiar with and wrote them down on the results so that when I ran into them again I knew what they meant. I wrote lists of questions. I asked every single question at my appointments and made sure that I understood the answers as best as I could and then googled them when I got home. There's just so much to learn and understand, it can be pretty overwhelming. Are you keeping track of your findings?

Oh my goodness! I do the same thing. Kept all paper scan reports, blood work etc. my file is bursting! I too write down all questions for docs and if word I don’t know meaning of I google it. I have learned so much being my own advocate. I can talk the talk. I wonder what the docs think of me sometimes. Often feel that they don’t like their patients being sometimes more up to date on their illness than they are. Take care! Kathy
