            update

            some news...not too bad, not too good...
            I called the hospital yesterday and the istologic was ready, they find something...I don't have a copy yet but i spoke with the surgeon:
            "microscopic disease was found, rplnd was the right choiche for you. In my opinion you don't need chemo, at 80% you are already cured with rplnd ... you will have chemo only when and if you will need. Now just stick to surveillance."
            is this right?
            thank you

              Yes, surveillance now is right. Make sure you make every follow-up, but chances are excellent that you're cured.
