I'm not an NP or a doctor, but a fellow supporter. 🙂
You're not alone in having to weigh quality of life over quantity. Since there is no evidence of disease, might it be possible to take a "treatment vacation" for a while? Sometimes this is possible so that you can get a break from the side effects.

What did the oncologist say about the risk of the cancer returning?

HE SAID IT WOULD RETURN, DANG. I CAN TAKE A 4 DAY BREAK ONCE IN A WHILE. OTHER WISH I HAVE TO TAKE XALKORI EVERY 3 DAYS. CT EVERY 3 MONTHS & BLOOD WORK WORK UP EVERY 6 WEEKS.

THANK YOU COLLEEN AND I HOPE YOU HAVE AN OUTSTANDING VALENTINES DAY!
