surviellance and the 2 year mark

[clyde_on]

So who in here has made it 2 years with no relapse for stage1 seminoma.
I know we want a 5 year rate but I heard 2 year means you are pretty close to clear.
I am looking to see how many folks have made it 2 years with no relapse.

Hi Clyde_on,

Although I'm anxious to see the results of this poll, I would be very cautious and be sure not to draw any conclusions from it. This is because there is a good chance that 2-year disease free survivors may be less likely to visit these forums, and therefore may not even see this poll.

Warmest Regards,

djm

I am not going to draw anything; I know the ct scans will hold my answers..

3 years clean!

Hi, I've just Cat scanned clean for the 3rd year. I had surgery on 1-13-2004 for a Stage 1, Pure Seminoma. I followed standard US protocol for follow up CAT scans. I did not recieve any other treatment than the surgery.

Good luck to everyone!

My tumor apeared 2-3 years ago, so technically, if I had my i/o at time of discovery I would be voting YA.
