Please let it be nothing more than scar tissue. Im sure you are very worried. A recurrence is what we all fear more than anything in the world. Please do your very best to keep yourself busy with your family and working. It will help keep your mind from going to the 'what if'.
I would love to see more of your posts. Do not be concerned about being overly eloquent. We are not doctors on this forum so do not worry about sounding too technical. You have successfully gone thru treatment which in my book makes you as much an expert as any other patient on this forum. Please feel free to jump in and share, it could make a huge impact on someone's life.
I will keep you in my prayers that you are well. Please make sure you come back more frequently and post whatever news you have. You have many friends here who are in your corner!!!!
