Lets see - 62 treatments x 2 whatevers per treatment = OMG!! I certainly don't need to worry about standing too close to the microwave! I also glow so I am easy to see in the dark smile.

I too was told that I had had the maximum when I was diagnosed with my recurraance - even my surgeon thought I had received the lifetime maximum. My RO however decided otherwise (as there really was no other viable plan) and I am here today because of him. I happily posted today that I am 8 years since end of treatment for 1st dx, 4 years since end of treatment for 2nd.

Happy to hear about your 3 year mark. Continue to be vigilant - and never dismiss any option that will help you.
