Small cell lung cancer: How often do you get surveillance testing?

Hi Vickie @vlpr, The speed at which your husband has been affected is scary. I hope that the doctors find/found something to help him. I'm sure it's overwhelming to deal with and process the reality of what's happening. Have you received your CT report yet?

Thank you for checking up on me. I saw my oncologist on Monday and got the all clear. I will be on a 2 month schedule again, then maybe can go back on a 3 month schedule.
My husband has improved - he is aware of things, but he is by no means himself. He knows who I am, but shows no pleasure in seeing me. He is still on 24 hour surveillance. I've been optimistic, however yesterday and today I've felt a bit down. I decided to take this afternoon for myself and will not travel back to the hospital this afternoon. I need to be there at 7am tomorrow to give consent for my husband to have anesthesia for a brain MRI.
Monday was such an up day with my report and my husband coming out of his complete delirium. I'm working on positive thoughts going forward. VLPR
