Joined: Jul 2007 Posts: 4 | Hi folks. Had my first CT scan since my treatment ended 5 months ago and it was negative. Can't tell you what a relief that was. By the way, I was posting as Lamont but, my computer crashed and I had to re-register and it wouldn't let me use that name as it is already taken; by me. | | |

you could attempt to login as Lamont, since you do not know the password anymore (probably), just ask the system to send it to your email (the one you gave under Lamont, that should do the trick.
I misplaced my pasword and I recovered it this way
